3. Connect the other end of the Serial cable to an RS-232 Serial port on the
workstation. If no RS-232 Serial port is available on the workstation, the
adapter on the end of the Serial cable can be removed to use the RJ-45
connector to create a Serial connection.
4. Verify that the switch power is on and POST is completed. See the
“
Power-On Self Test
” section, earlier in this chapter.
5. Power on the workstation and establish a connection to the switch using a
terminal emulator application (such as HyperTerminal).
