Before you can use the console interface on the router using a terminal or PC, you must perform the
following steps:
Step 1 Configure your terminal emulation software with the following settings:
• 9600 bits per second (b/s)
• 8 data bits
• No parity
• 1 stop bit
• No flow control
Note These are the default serial communication parameters on the router. For information about how to
change the default settings to meet the requirements of your terminal or host, refer to the
Cisco IOS

Step 2 Connect to the port using the RJ-45-to-RJ-45 cable and RJ-45-to-DB-25 DTE adapter or using the
RJ-45-to-DB-9 DTE adapter (labeled “Terminal”).
