Chapter 3: AT-SBx81CFC960 Controller Fabric Card
72
Section I: Hardware Overview
Console (RS-232) Port
The Console Port is used to conduct local management sessions with the
switch. Local management sessions are established with a terminal or PC
with a terminal emulation program, and the management cable that comes
with the card.
Local management is referred to as out-of-band management because it
is not conducted over a network. Consequently, the AT-SBx81CFC960
Controller Fabric Card does not need an Internet Protocol (IP) address for
this type of management.
Your initial management session with the switch must be a local
management session. For instructions on how to start a local
management session, refer to “Using Local Management to Verify the
Chassis” on page 212 or the Software Reference for SwitchBlade x8100
Series Switches.
