4.7Installing the Serial Cable

Connect the serial cable (supplied with the switch) from the switch’s serial port to any tty-type device (such as a terminal, or the serial port of a worksta- tion or PC running a terminal emulation program).

NOTE: The switch’s tty port comes configured at 9600 baud, 8 bits, no parity and 1 stop bit.

When you turn on the switch, you should see the switch boot on the tty device connected to the switch’s serial port.

NOTE: The switch is ready for user configuration asa soon as it is connected to a tty-type device. To access the switch, enter asx at the prompt of the tty device.
