config system slot

Configures the virtual ports on a Local Manager. Virtual ports are connected via an intermediate console server over a network connection or utilizing a COM port redirector providing the same functionality that a physical connection to an LM provides.

Virtual ports are also used when communicating directly to a managed device on its management telnet port with reduced functionality. Ports may display UNAVAILABLE if the Local Manager cannot establish an RFC-2217 connection to the IP/port.
