Connecting the Console Port and Auxiliary Port
The router arrives with a console and auxiliary cable kit, which contains the cable and adapters you need
to connect a console (an ASCII terminal or PC running terminal emulation software) or modem to the
router. The console and auxiliary cable kit includes:
•
RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable
•
RJ-45-to-DB-9 female DTE adapter (labeled TERMINAL)
•
RJ-45-to-DB-25 male DCE adapter (labeled MODEM)
Note
For more information, see the
“Console and Auxiliary Port Cables and Pinouts” section on page C-2
.
Connecting to the Console Port
Use the console terminal for local administrative access to the router. You can connect a terminal to the
console port only.
To connect the console port to a terminal (an ASCII terminal or a PC running terminal emulation
software), use the following procedure:
Step 1
Connect one end of the RJ-45 rollover cable to the RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter (labeled TERMINAL).
Step 2
Connect the other end of the rollover cable directly to the console port on the router. (See
Figure 3-11
.)
