5.3MANAGEMENT TERMINAL SETUP

Use one of the following systems to access Local Management:

•An IBM or compatible PC running a VT series emulation software package

•A Digital Equipment Corporation VT100 type terminal

•A VT type terminal running emulation programs for the Digital Equipment Corporation VT100 series

•A remote VT100 type terminal via a modem connection

•In-band via a Telnet connection

5.3.1Console Cable Connection

Use the Console Cable Kit provided with the 6C105 chassis to attach the management terminal to the COM port as shown in Figure 5-1.

Connect an IBM PC or compatible device, running the VT terminal emulation, to the 6H122-16 as follows:

1.Connect the RJ45 connector at one end of the cable (supplied in the kit) to the COM port on the 6H122-16.

2.Plug the RJ45 connector at the other end of the cable into the RJ45-to-DB9 adapter (supplied in the kit).

3.Connect the RJ45-to-DB9 adapter to the PC communications port.

NOTE

If using a VT100 style terminal, use the RJ45 to DB25 adapter included in the Console Cable Kit, instead of the PC adapter.
