I'm trying to configure the UPS serial port on the core i/o of an 
N4000 in order to specify certain actions to take in the event of 
power interruption.

>PUB:

In addition to configuring ldev 22 via SYSGEN, it is also configured 
via NMMGR DTC path (speed 1200 baud).

Could the problem be related to the fact that it's configured both 
via SYSGEN and NMMGR?

Or what?

Thanks for any help.
