Configure Local Port Settings from the Remote Console

Configure Local Console port settings on this page.

Some changes you make to the settings on the Local Port Settings page restart the local terminals. If a local terminal restart occurs when a setting is changed, it is noted here.

1. The "Enable DVI-D Local Port, Admin Port and Terminal Port" checkbox is selected and the ports are enabled by default. Deselecting the checkbox disables the ports.

   The local terminal is restarted when this change is made.

2. Choose the appropriate keyboard type from among the options in the drop-down list. These keyboard options apply only to the Remote Console; they do not apply to the Local Console.

   The local terminal is restarted when this change is made.

   US	Portuguese (Portugal)
   US/International	Norwegian (Norway)
   United Kingdom	Swedish (Sweden)
   French (France)	Danish (Denmark)
   German (Germany)	Belgian (Belgium)
   German (Switzerland)	Hungarian
   Simplified Chinese	Spanish
   Traditional Chinese	Italian
   Dubeolsik Hangul (Korean)	Slovenian
   JIS (Japanese Industry Standard)

   Note: Keyboard use for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean is for display only. Local language input is not supported at this time for SX II Local Console functions.

3. Choose the type of Local Console authentication.
   • Local/LDAP/RADIUS/TACACS+ - This is the recommended option.
   • None - There is no authentication for Local Console access.

     Important - If local port authentication is set to None, users only need to hit a character key on their keyboard and are automatically logged in as admin user.

     This option is recommended for secure environments only. For default settings, users are required to login to the local port via username and password.

4. Select the "Ignore CC managed mode on local port" checkbox if you would like local user access to the SX II even when the appliance is under CC-SG management. Alternatively, use the direct device access while under CC-SG management feature.

   If you do not ignore CC manage mode on the local port now and decide at a later time to remove the appliance from CC-SG management, you must remove the device from within CC-SG and then return to this page to deselect this checkbox.
