Chapter 1: Overview
Terminal Port
The terminal port is used to establish a local (out-of-band) management session with the switch and configure the switch’s operating parameters. You establish a local management session with the switch by connecting a terminal or a personal computer with a terminal emulation program to the port.
Note
You can use the AT-9400 Switch as an unmanaged switch if the default settings of the AT-S63 Management Software are adequate for your network. For a list of the default settings, refer to the AT-S63 Management Software Features Guide.
The terminal port has an RJ-45 style connector. An RJ-45 to RS-232 management cable is supplied with the switch.
The terminal port is set to the following specifications:
Default baud rate: 9600 bps (Range is 9600 to 115200 bps)
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None
Note
These settings are for a DEC VT100 or ANSI terminal, or an equivalent terminal emulation program.
