•
Parity check: An error checking technique to detect whether errors occurred in the data
transmission.
•
Stop bits: The last bits transmitted in data transmission to unequivocally indicate the end of a
character. The more the bits are, the slower the transmission is.
These attribute settings must be consistent on two interfaces for communication.
Follow these steps to configure asynchronous attributes of a serial interface:
To do…
Use the command…
Remarks
Enter system view
system-view
––
Enter user interface view
user-interface { first-num1
[ last-num1 ] | { aux | console |
vty } first-num2 [ last-num2 ] }
––
Configure the transmission rate
speed speed-value
Optional
9600 bps by default
Configure the data bits for each
character
databits { 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 }
Optional
8 by default
Configure a parity check method
parity { even | mark | none |
odd | space }
Optional
None by default
Configure the number of stop bits
transmitted per byte
stopbits { 1 | 1.5 | 2 }
Optional
1 by default.
NOTE:
The settings of transmission rate, data bits, parity check, and stop bits must be consistent on terminals and
user interface for communication.

shell
Optional
The terminal service is enabled on
all user interfaces by default.

function for terminal users
idle-timeout minutes [ seconds ]
Optional
10 minutes by default.
Set the number of lines on the next
screen
screen-length screen-length
Optional
By default, 24 lines of data are
displayed on the next screen.
Set the display type of the current
user terminal
terminal type { ansi | vt100 }
Optional
ANSI by default.
