The

procedure

that follows

sets up

the

configuration console in SLIP mode and logs you

on

as

the

system administrator with

full

access to all 6416SW commands.

Note: A typical workstation includes two serial ports (COM1, COM2):

One dedicated to an ASCII-terminal emulator,

The other dedicated to an IP stack and supported via the SLIP protocol.

Both ports are needed for this procedure.

1. Connect

your

workstation

to

the RS-232 console

port

on the

 

front panel

of the

6416SW

from

the

‘ASCII-terminal’

serial

3. If

a

data

transmissionother thanrate9600

is

required, use the SET TERMINAL

 

BAUD

command

to

configure

a data

transmission

rate.
