You will need to assign an IP address using the CLI. You can access the CLI by
attaching management station through a serial cable to the Console port. After you
assign an IP address, you can access the system through Telnet or IronView
Network Manager.
Complete the following steps to attach a management station using the serial port:
1. Use a straight-through cable to connect a PC or terminal to the male DB-9
serial port connector.
Note:
You need to run a terminal emulation program on the PC.
2. Open the terminal emulation program and set the session parameters as
follows:
v
Baud: 9600 bps
v
Data bits: 8
v
Parity: None
v
Stop bits: 1
v
Flow control: None
When you establish the serial connection to the system, press Enter to display the
CLI prompt in the terminal emulation window. For example:
TurboIron>
When you see one of these prompts, you are connected to the system and can
proceed to “Assigning permanent passwords” on page 19.
You can customize the prompt by changing the system name. Refer to the
FastIron
and TurboIron 24X Configuration Guide
.
If you do not see a prompt:
v
Make sure the cable is securely connected to your PC and to the device.
v
Check the settings in your terminal emulation program. In addition to the session
settings listed above, make sure the terminal emulation session is running on the
same serial port you attached to the device.
The EIA or TIA 232 serial communication port serves as a connection point for
management by a PC or SNMP workstation. The switches come with a standard
male DB-9 connector, shown in Figure 8 on page 17.
