Chapter 3 Switch Installation
Preparing for Installation
Follow these steps to connect the PC or terminal to the switch:
Step 1 Configure the baud rate and character format of the PC or terminal to match these
console port default characteristics:
• 9600 baud
• 8 data bits
• 1 stop bit
• No parity
• None (flow control)
After you have gained access to the switch, you can change the console baud rate
through the Administration > Console Baud Rate window in the Cluster
Management Suite (CMS).
Step 2 Using the supplied RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable, insert the RJ-45 connector into
the console port, as shown in Figure 3-1.
Step 3 Attach the DB-9 female DTE adapter of the RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable to a PC,
or attach an appropriate adapter to the terminal.
Step 4 Start the terminal-emulation program if you are using a PC or terminal.
