Serial Console Server User Manual

102

You can allow users to store logs on pre-defined Syslog servers.

To activate the function, check the “Enable Syslog” option to enable the

function. When this function is activated, “Syslog server” option will then

become available in the Port Buffering function.

Enter/select the server information in the fields shown in the diagram.

Port Name Auto Discovery

By default, this function is disabled (unchecked) and the server will display the

port names according to the default naming rule (e.g. COM1, COM2, etc.).

When this function is enabled (checked), the server will automatically send

probe strings to retrieve and display the port name of the connected network

switches. The port name is displayed according to the device information

(brand and model).

When the network switches cannot be recognized, the server will display the

port names according to the default naming rule.

If the network switch needs verification initially, the server will also only

display the default name. However, if you are verified (logged in to the switch),

you can try and reconnect the serial port to see if the server can recognize the

network switch in attempt to display the switch’s information.

Compatible network switches include Cisco, Juniper, HPE, Dell, Huawei,

H3C, EdgeCore, TRENDnet, Fortinet and ATEN ES0152.
