Starting and configuring the router
The first time you access the router, you can only log in to the router locally from the console port.
If two MPUs run on the router, you can use the console port on either of the MPUs.
Connecting the router to a configuration terminal
To access the router, use a console cable to connect the router to a configuration terminal.
Preparing the console cable and configuration terminal
A console cable connects the console port on the router to a serial port on a configuration terminal to
transmit configuration data. For more information about the console cable, see
H3C CR16000-M
Routers Hardware Information and Specifications
.
Prepare the following console cable and configuration terminal for configuring the router:
•
An 8-core DB9-to-RJ45 serial console cable with a crimped RJ-45 connector at one end and a
DB-9 female connector at the other end.
•
A PC with a serial port.
Setting up the configuration environment
CAUTION:
Follow these guidelines when you connect a DB9-to-RJ45 console cable:
•
Identify the port marks to be sure that you connect the correct ports.
•
The serial ports on PCs do not support hot swapping. To connect a PC to an operating router, first
connect the PC end. To disconnect a PC from an operating router, first disconnect the router end.
To connect the router to a PC by using a DB9-to-RJ45 console cable:
1.
Plug the DB-9 female connector of the DB9-to-RJ45 console cable to the serial port on the PC.
2.
Connect the RJ-45 connector of the cable to the console port on the router.
