Follow this procedure to connect a data terminal to the console port.

Before you begin

• The router must be fully installed in its rack, connected to a power source, and grounded.

• The necessary cabling for the console, management, and network connections must be available.

• An RJ-45 rollover cable and DB9F/RJ-45 adapter are provided in the router accessory kit.

• Network cabling should already be routed to the location of the installed router.

Step 1

Set your terminal to these operational values: 115200 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 2 stop bits (115200 8N1).

Step 2

Attach the terminal end of the cable to the interface port on the data terminal.
