Out-of-Band Management

ATTACHING TO THE RS-232 PORT

The TE100-S55 can be configured using the Out-of-Band Management function. To begin, you must first connect a PC (or

aterminal) directly to TE100-S55 using the supplied RS-232 serial cable.

The RS-232 port is a DCE with a 9-pin female connector. Figure Chapter 3 -1 shows the cable connection to a DTE such as a PC running VT100 terminal emulation software or an actual VT100 terminal. The switch-to-terminal (DCE/DTE) serial communication speed is preset at 19,200 baud.

Refer to Appendix B for detailed pin specifications of the RS-232 port.
