Connecting to COM Port for Local Management

Connecting to a Modem

To connect a modem to an Enterasys Networks DFE module COM port (Figure 3‐11), use

aUTP straight‐through cable with RJ45 connectors and an RJ45‐to‐DB25 male adapter, and proceed as follows:

1.Connect the RJ45 connector at one end of the UTP straight‐through cable to the COM port of the DFE‐Gold module.

2.Plug the RJ45 connector at the other end of the UTP straight‐through cable into the RJ45‐to‐DB25 modem adapter.

3.Connect the RJ45‐to‐DB25 adapter to the communications port on the modem.

4.Turn on the modem.

5.With a PC connected to a remote modem, you can configure the switch remotely. To accomplish this, you must configure your PC VT emulation package with the following parameters.

Parameter	Setting

Mode	7	Bit Control

Transmit	Transmit=9600

Bits Parity	8 Bits, No Parity

Stop Bit	1	Stop Bit

6.When these parameters are set, the Local Management password screen will display. Refer to the Enterasys Matrix DFE‐Gold Series Configuration Guide for further information.
