The Auxiliary port can be configured while the HSM is in online, offline or secure state.
The variables to be configured are as follows:
· Baud rate: 300 to 38.4k.
· Data bits: 7 or 8 data bits.
· Parity bit: Odd, even or no parity.
· Stop bits: 1 stop bit.
The procedure is similar to configuring the Console port. The following is an example of configuring the Auxiliary port for 9600 baud, 7 data bits, even parity and 1 stop bit.
Example:
CA <Return>
|
BAUD RATES |

|
1. |
300 |
|
2. |
600 |
|
3. |
1200 |
|
4. |

4800 |
|
6. |
9600 |
|
7. |
19200 |
|
8. |
38400 |
In response to the prompts, enter the number of the
desired option or < RETURN > for no change.
Auxiliary port baud rate: (current value = 6) <Return>
Auxiliary port word format: (current value = 4) 3 <Return>
The values entered take effect immediately after the command has been completed.
The default settings for the Auxiliary port are:
9600 baud,
8 data bits,
1 stop bit,
No parity.
