Setting the Baud Rate of the Console Port

The Console port is used for local management of the switch. To set its
baud rate, use the BAUD-RATE SET command in the Global
Configuration mode.

Note

If you change the baud rate of the Console port during a local
management session, your session is interrupted. To resume the
session you must change the speed of the terminal or the terminal
emulator program to match the new speed of the serial terminal port
on the switch.

Here is an example to set the baud rate of the Console port on the switch
to 57600 bps:

Example 1:

awplus> enable
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config-conf)# baud-rate set 57600

awplus# config
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
awplus(config)# line console
awplus(config-line)# speed 57600

Baud rate changed to 57600 bps.
Please change your console baud rate correspondingly.

To display the current settings of the Console port, use the SHOW BAUD-
RATE command in the User Exec or Privileged Exec mode. Here is the
command:

awplus# show baud-rate

Here is an example of the information.
