MicroUSB-B console port access
The MicroUSB type B console port is on the I/O side of the switch.
NOTE: The Z9100-ON switch uses the Silicon Labs CP2102 USB-B chip. To find the correct USB-B universal
asynchronous receiver-transmitter (UART) driver, see https://www.silabs.com/products/development-tools/software/
usb-to-uart-bridge-vcp-drivers.
When you connect the MicroUSB-B port, it becomes the primary connection and, while connected, all messages are sent to the
microUSB-B port.
1. Power on the PC.
2. Connect the USB-A end of cable into an available USB port on the PC.
3. Connect the microUSB-B end of cable into the microUSB-B console port on the Z9100-ON.
4. Power on the switch.
5. Install the necessary USB device drivers.
6. Open your terminal software emulation program to access the Z9100-ON.
7. Confirm that the terminal settings on your terminal software emulation program are as follows:
● 115200 baud rate
● No parity
● 8 data bits
● 1 stop bit
● No flow control
USB storage
USB storage supports the FAT file system. USB storage does not automatically mount, to use USB storage, first mount the
device.
1. Create a mount directory for the USB storage.
ONIE:/ # mkdir /mnt/usb
2. View the fixed disks using the fdisk command.
ONIE:/mnt # fdisk -l
For internal storage:
Disk /dev/sda: 15.8 GB, 15829303296 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1924 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 1925 15458303+ ee EFI GPT
For USB storage:
Disk /dev/sdb: 30.9 GB, 30942946304 bytes
64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 29509 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
3. Mount the device /dev/sdb to the /mnt/usb directory.
ONIE:/ # mount -t vfat /dev/sdb /mnt/usb
NOTE:
The following message displays if the /mnt/usb directory is missing: mount: mounting /dev/sdb
on /mnt/usb failed: No such file or directory.
NOTE: The following message displays if the USB device is not seen: mount: mounting /dev/sdb on /mnt/usb
failed: No such device or address.
