Table 53 .
Step 2. Connect the terminal to the Console port on the front panel ( Figure 42 ) using the
serial cable. Note:

If you use a null modem cable, make sure that the switch beside the Console
port is set to DTE when connecting to the serial port of a PC.

If you use a straight-through cable, make sure that the switch beside the
Console port is set to DCE when connecting to the serial port of a PC.
Step 3. Establish the connection by pressing the <Enter> key a few times on your terminal
keyboard.

Telnet Connection
After a successful initialization, you can access the router with a Telnet connection from a PC
or workstation connected to the network, after the management port (see
Figure 43 ) has been
configured using the
bof>address
command. Telnet access provides the same options for
user and administrator access as those available through the Console port.
To configure the 7750 SR-a for Telnet access, you need to have a device with Telnet software
located on the same network. The 7750 SR-a must have a management IP address. The IP
address is manually configured. Each 7750 SR router is limited to a total of seven inbound/
outbound Telnet or SSH sessions to guarantee that either inbound or outbound sessions will
be available. For information about configuring router parameters, refer to the appropriate
Router Configuration Guide. For pinout information, refer to
