Connecting to the COM1 Port

Note The COM1 port is not supported for connection to a console.

The COM1 port (labeled COM1) is an RS-232 port with a DB-9 interface. (See Figure 3-2.) You can use this port to connect to an external serial communication device such as a modem. For information about how to turn off hardware flow control, see the Cisco MDS 9000 Family CLI Configuration Guide or the Cisco MDS 9000 Family Fabric Manager Configuration Guide.

To connect the COM1 port to a modem, follow these steps:

Step 1 Connect the DB-9 serial adapter to the COM1 port.

Note Connect the modem to the COM1 port using the adapters and cables provided with the accessory kit.

Step 2 Connect the RJ-45 to DB-25 modem adapter to the modem.

Step 3 Connect these two adapters using the RJ-45 to RJ-45 rollover cable (or equivalent crossover cable).

Step 4 If the default settings for the COM1 port were modified, see the Cisco MDS 9000 Family CLI Configuration Guide or the Cisco MDS 9000 Family Fabric Manager Configuration Guide for information on this feature.
