To monitor and configure the switch via serial console, use the console port
on the front panel of the switch to connect it to a VT100 terminal or to a
computer running VT100 terminal emulation software. The console port is
implemented as a data terminal equipment (DTE) connector.
The following equipment is required to use the console port:
•
VT100-compatible terminal or a computer with a serial port running
VT100 terminal emulation software, such as HyperTerminal
®
.
•
A serial cable (provided) with an RJ-45 connector for the console port and
DB-9 connector for the terminal.
Perform the following tasks to connect a terminal to the switch console port:
1
Connect the DB-9 connector on the serial cable to the terminal or
computer running VT100 terminal emulation software.
2
Configure the terminal emulation software as follows:
a
Select the appropriate serial port (for example, COM 1) to connect to
the console.
b
Set the data rate to 115,200 baud.
c
Set the data format to 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity.
d
Set the flow control to none.
e
Set the terminal emulation mode to
VT100
.
f
Select Terminal keys for Function, Arrow, and Ctrl keys. Make sure
that the setting is for Terminal keys (not Microsoft Windows keys).
3
Connect the RJ-45 connector on the cable directly to the switch console
port. The Dell Networking console port is located on the right side of the
front panel and is labeled with a
