The console connection is used to access the Nortel Switched Firewall for performing the
initial configuration.
1.
Connect the console cable and start a console terminal.
Connect the included console cable between the serial port on the Firewall to the serial port of
a computer with terminal emulation software as described in the
Nortel Switched Firewall
5100 Series Hardware Installation Guide
(216382-D).
Press <Enter> on the console terminal to establish the connection. The Nortel Switched
Firewall login prompt will appear. Enter the default login name (

password (

utility menu appears.

command to restore the full configuration of a previous setup. The new
firewall is a clone of the original and can replace the original firewall in the network setup. For
