Chapter 3. Accessing Your IBM 2210
If your router was not pre-configured, or if you did not use the EasyStart function,
you will need to configure the router manually. To do this, you must first attach an
ASCII terminal to the IBM 2210.
Attaching an ASCII Terminal to the Service Port
Attach an ASCII terminal or emulator (with the appropriate emulation software) to
the service port to provide local or remote access to the IBM 2210 as shown in
Figure 21.

the service port has a factory default setting of 9600 bps.
Note: The IBM 2210 service port can be damaged by static electricity discharge.
It is shipped with a plastic port cover to prevent such damage. Remove the plastic
cover when you are attaching a terminal and store it in a safe place. When you
disconnect the terminal, reinstall the plastic cover.
