Out-of-Band Management Port

The Out-of-Band (OOB) management port is a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port that you can use to
connect directly to the switch to perform system administrator management applications. The
Out-of-Band port is regarded as a regular IP interface to the system, and all management interfaces
are available over this port.
For more information about configuring Out-of-Band, see "Out-of-Band Management Port."

Console (RS-232) Port

The console (RS-232) port is used only for management via a serial interface. This port is a direct
connection to the switch, used to access CLI from a console terminal connected to an EIA/TIA-232
port.
The console port supports synchronous data of eight data bits, one stop bit, and no parity bit. The
default baud rate is 115,200 bps.
