CONFIGURATION

This Switch is an unmanaged, but “smart” Switch because programmable administration parameters make the Switch operate more effectively than unmanaged (dumb) switches. This chapter will describe how to configure the Switch.

Console Port (RS-232 DCE)

The console configuration requires connecting a terminal, such as a Workstation or a PC running a terminal emulation program (such as HyperTerminal, which is automatically installed with Microsoft Windows) a to the RS-232 DCE console port of the Switch.

The console port is set at the factory for the following

configuration:

 

„

Baud rate:

9,600

„

Data width:

8 bits
