Before you can access the Web-based Web UI tools, which is the primary
configuration interface for Aruba Access Multiplexers, the switch must be
configured with basic system information through the CLI.
Generally, this basic system configuration is performed the first time an
administrator logs in to the switch, when the factory-installed setup dialog is
automatically launched and prompts the administrator for this basic system
information.
Serial Console Port
The serial console port is located on the front panel of the 800-E Access
Multiplexer. This port is for connecting a local management console and can be
used to access the text-based Command-Line Interface (CLI) to configure,
manage, and troubleshoot the 800-E Access Multiplexer.
Connect the required RS-232 serial cable to a terminal with a DB-9 male port. (All
switch accessory kits contain a flat RJ-45 to RJ-45 cable and DB-9 to RJ-45
adapter for this purpose). Use the following communications settings for
connecting to a terminal emulation session on the terminal
