To connect a terminal using a Catalyst 5000 family Supervisor Engine III console cable, perform these
steps:
Step 1
Place the console port mode switch in the
out
position.
Step 2
Connect to the port using the Supervisor Engine III cable and the appropriate adapter for the terminal
connection.
Step 3
Position the cable in the cable guide (if installed). Make sure there are no sharp bends in the cable.
Step 4
Check the terminal documentation to determine the baud rate. The baud rate of the terminal must match
the default baud rate (9600 baud) of the console port. Set up the terminal as follows:

supervisor engine are active and can be used for normal traffic, like any other ports in the chassis.
To connect to the supervisor engine uplink ports, perform these steps:
