Connecting the Router to a Management Console Device
You can connect a console, laptop, modem, or other auxiliary device by connecting a
serial cable to the port on the front panel labeled CONSOLE. This port accepts a serial
cable with an RJ-45 connector that is provided with the router.
NOTE: The AUX port is not supported.
To connect a management console or auxiliary device:
1. Turn off the power to the console or auxiliary device.
2. Plug the RJ-45 end of the serial cable into the CONSOLE port on the Routing Engine
(Figure 32 on page 122 shows the connector. Figure 33 on page 123 shows the ports.)
3. Plug the female DB-9 end into the serial port of the device.
NOTE:
For console devices, configure the serial port to the following values:
•
Baud rate—9600
•
Parity—N
•
Data bits—8
•
Stop bits—1
•
Flow control—none
