Configuration Requirements
4
If you use the Configuration Wizard for configuration, you also connect to X4000
over the serial interface, but you do not access the SNMP shell. The start
window of the Configuration Wizard appears in this case (see Figure 6-1,
page 113 ).
Unix If you are using a Unix PC, you cannot use HyperTerminal. You will require a
terminal program such as cu (under System V), tip (under BSD) or minicom
(under Linux). The settings for these programs are the same as listed above.
Example of a command line for using cu:
cu -s 9600 -c/dev/ttyb
Example of a command line for using tip:
tip -9600 /dev/ttyb
If the login prompt does not appear after pressing Return several times, the
connection to
X4000 has not been set up successfully. Check the COM1 or
COM2 settings on your PC.
