Preparing to configure the Ethernet switch
Before you configure the Ethernet switch, you must complete the following prerequisites:
●The Ethernet switch power cord is connected to the back of the switch and to the back of a UPS.
●The communication protocol on your computer has the following port settings so that you can use your terminal emulation program:
-9600 baud
-No parity
-8 data bits
-1 stop bit
-No flow control
Note:
Avaya Terminal Emulation and HyperTerminal are supported terminal emulation applications.
●If a Network Management System (NMS) is to monitor the Ethernet switch, you coordinated the assignment of community names with the network administrator. If an NMS is not used, you set the community names to unique string values.
