Management Terminal Setup Requirements

2.2.1Cable Conﬁguration for the Management Terminal

This section outlines the proper cable conﬁgurations to connect a management terminal to the ESXMIM.

You need an adapter kit containing the following items to connect a terminal to the ESXMIM:

•One RS232 cable

•One VT series adapter

•One device cable

The adapter you use depends on whether you connect a VT320 or VT 220 terminal or a PC emulating a VT320 or VT220 to an ESXMIM COM port. Read the information included with the adapter kit to make sure that you are using the correct adapter.

To conﬁgure the cables, perform the following steps:

1.Plug a straight-through twisted pair cable (e.g., an RS232 cable) into the ESXMIM’s COM port.

2.Plug the other end of the RS232 cable into the adapter.

3.Connect the adapter into the device cable and plug the other end of the device cable into the terminal.

4.Power on the terminal. Access to Local Management is automatic. However, because of auto-baud detection, you may need to press

ENTER.
