This selection allows you set the baud rate of the serial port on the
AT-8401 management card. The range is 2400 to 115,200 bps. This
menu selection is only available from a local management
session. The default is 9600 bps.

This selection allows you to reboot the switch without affecting
the saved configuration on the switch.

Downloads and Uploads

3. After you have set the parameters, type R to return to the Main Menu.

Then type S to select Save Configuration Changes.

Always be sure to save your changes. Unsaved changes are lost if
you reset or power cycle the switch.

Changes to any of the parameters on this menu, including the IP
address, subnet mask, or gateway address, are immediately
activated on a switch.

Caution

Every time you save your changes on the switch, a message
advising you to refrain from resetting the device for 15 seconds is
displayed. This message applies only if you actually intend to reset
or power cycle the device, a task that does not need to be
performed for most management procedures. The warning is there
in the rare circumstance where you do intend to reset the device
after making a change. The switch may take up to 15 seconds to
save the change to flash. Resetting the switch too soon might cause
the change to be lost.
