1. HARDWARE OVERVIEW
3. HARDWARE INSTALLATION
The front console port allows a dumb terminal or PC with terminal emulation software
to locally access management functions and connected devices.
The device ports allow simple and flexible connections to serial devices using adapters
and a standard CAT5 cable. Connect one end of the CAT5 cable to the device port and
the other end to an adapter that attaches to the serial console of the target system.
The default communication parameters for the device ports and console ports are:
•
9600 baud • 1 stop bit • 8 data bits • No flow control • No parity
Note:
EMG 7500 device ports are reversed by default, and are software configurable.

Wait about a minute and a half for the boot process to complete. The
first time you power up the EMG unit, Eth1 tries to obtain its IP Address
via DHCP.
