3.2 Connecting to the Serial Port of the 800 Series Gateway
Note
The default IP addresses for the management ports are located in the “Important Notice”
sheet received with the shipment. MGMT ports are configured in bonding.
If you do not know the default IP address, go to Section 3.6 “Changing the 800 Series
Gateway Management Port IP Address” on page 45.
The serial port interface enables administrators to perform management tasks on the 800 series
gateway.
To connect to the serial port of an 800 series gateway:
1. Connect one end of a CAT5 RJ-45 (male-male) cable to the T media serial adapter (both supplied
with unit). Connect the DB9 to RJ-45 to the serial port of the computer and the other end of the
CAT5 RJ-45 (male-male) cable to the serial port (labeled 10101) of the 800 series gateway as
shown in figure
3.2 on page 43. See Section A.2 “Tmedia Serial Adapter Wiring Diagram” on
page 52 for a RJ-45 pin out description.
2. If your computer’s serial port features a DB9 connector, use the T media serial adapter supplied
with your 800 series gateway. If your computer's serial port features a USB connector, you will need
to provide a USB to DB9 adapter. Refer to figure
3.3 on page 43.
