Connecting Equipment to the Console Port
The Switch console port settings are set to:
■
8 data bits
■
no parity
■
1 stop bit
The terminal connected to the console port on the
Switch must be configured with the same settings.
This procedure is described in the documentation
supplied with the terminal. If you have enabled
auto-configuration for the Switch, the terminal’s
line speed (baud rate) is detected automatically.
Connection to the console port can be direct for
local management, or through a modem for
remote management. The maximum baud rate the
auto-configuration detects is 19,200 baud.
Appropriate cables are available from your local sup-
plier. If you need to make your own cables, pin-outs
are detailed in
.
Connecting a VT100 Terminal
To connect a VT100 terminal directly to the console
port on the Switch, you need a standard null
modem cable:
1
Connect one end of the cable to the console port
on the Switch, and the other to the console port on
the VT100 terminal.
2
Ensure that your terminal is set to:
■
8 data bits
■
no parity
■
1 stop bit
If auto-configuration is enabled for the Switch, the
terminal’s line speed (baud rate) is detected auto-
matically.
Connecting a VT100 Terminal Emulator
1
Ensure that the workstation is running a suitable
terminal emulation package. There are many avail-
able; contact your local supplier for further details.
2
If you are using a PC, you need a null modem
cable with an appropriate connector. Connect one
end of the cable to the workstation, and the other
end to the console port on the Switch.
3
Ensure that your workstation is set to:
■
8 data bits
■
no parity
■
1 stop bit
If auto-configuration is enabled for the Switch, the
workstation’s line speed (baud rate) is detected
automatically.
