Connect a Console Terminal

Use the console terminal for local administrative access to the universal gateway. You can only connect a terminal to the console port. You can use the auxiliary port to connect a terminal or a modem for remote access to the universal gateway.

To connect a terminal (an ASCII terminal or a PC running terminal emulation software) to the console port on the Cisco AS5350 or Cisco AS5400, follow this procedure.
