4. COM Port Configuration
This chapter explains how to set up the 24-Port +1 Fiber Module Slot Fast Ethernet Switch with VLAN through
a terminal-emulation program. (An emulation program is required to communicate with the switch’s internal
software.) Before you can access the switch, you
must
configure the terminal-emulation program. Suitable
programs include Windows
®
HyperTerminal or other third-party programs such as Telix and ProComm
®
.
Using the included RS-232 transfer to RJ-45 connector, connect the included RJ-45 cable for COM port
between a COM port on your PC and the switch’s console port as shown in Figure 4-1.
Figure 4-1. Typical console connection.
Once you connect the console to the switch, you’re ready to set up the terminal-emulation program. In this
manual, we use HyperTerminal as an example emulation program. Other terminal-emulation programs may
work; the setup principles are the same. Simply follow the menu prompts for setup.
