connected the cable. The settings must be set to match the default settings for the switch, which are:
38,400 baud (bits per second)
8 data bits
no parity
1 stop bit
no hardware flow control
3. Turn on the switch. The user will be prompted to press the Enter key if the switch successfully completes
POST (power-on self test). The prompt (such as < Command-Line >) appears after the user presses the
Enter key.
