Manually
Configuring IP
Information
You can manually configure the Switch IP information by connecting a
workstation using a console cable to the console port of the Switch. You
can then manually enter IP information using the command line interface
(CLI).
Connecting to the
Console Port
To set up your Switch manually, you can alternatively make a connection
to the console port (this example describes a local connection to the
console port. You can do this whilst the Switch is offline, that is, before
you connect the Switch to a network, or whilst the Switch is online, that
is, connected to a network.
Prerequisites
■
A workstation with terminal emulation software installed, such as
Microsoft HyperTerminal. This software allows you to communicate
with the Switch via the console port directly.
■
Documentation supplied with the terminal emulation software.
■
A suitable cable:
■
An RJ-45 to DB9 converter cable, or
■
A standard null modem cable — if you are connecting directly to
the console port.
You can find pin-out diagrams for both cables in Appendix B on page 73 .
■
You need to have the following so that you can manually set up the
Switch with IP information:
■
IP address
■
subnet mask
■
default gateway
