Initial Configuration
4-2
To connect to the console port, complete the following steps:
1.
Connect the console cable to the serial port on a terminal, or
a PC running terminal emulation software, and tighten the
captive retaining screws on the DB-9 connector.
2.
Connect the other end of the cable to the RS-232 serial port
on the access point.
3.
Make sure the terminal emulation software is set as follows:
•
Select the appropriate serial port (COM port 1 or 2).
•
Set the data rate to 9600 baud.
•
Set the data format to 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity.
•
Set flow control to none.
•
Set the emulation mode to VT100.
•
When using HyperTerminal, select Terminal keys, not
Windows keys.
Note:
When using HyperTerminal with Microsoft
®
Windows
®
2000, make
sure that you have Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 or later installed.
Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 fixes the problem of arrow keys not
functioning in HyperTerminal’s VT100 emulation. See
www.microsoft.com for information on Windows 2000 service packs.
4.
Once you have set up the terminal correctly, press the [Enter]
key to initiate the console connection. The console login
screen will be displayed.
