Configuring the Switch Using the Web User Interface
For instructions on setting up the switch using the WebUI, refer to the required version of the software
configuration guide. In the guide, go to Configuring the Switch Using the Web User Interface.
Configuring the Switch Using the CLI
Accessing the CLI Through the Console Port
You can access the CLI on a configured or unconfigured switch by connecting the RJ-45 console port or USB
console port of the switch to your PC or workstation and accessing the switch through a terminal emulation
program.
If you have stacked your switches, connect to the console port of one of the switches in the stack. You can
initially configure the entire stack from any member switch.
Note
Connecting the RJ-45 Console Port
Procedure
Step 1 Connect the RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable to the 9-pin serial port on the PC. Connect the other end of the cable
to the switch console port.
Step 2 Start the terminal-emulation program on the PC or the terminal. The program, frequently a PC application
such as HyperTerminal or ProcommPlus, makes communication between the switch and your PC or terminal
possible.
