Connecting to the Console Port (FastHub 400M Models)

To connect the RJ-45 console port of a FastHub 400M model to a management station or modem, you must use the supplied RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover console cable and the appropriate adapter and follow these steps.

Note The rollover console cable and a RJ-45-to-DB-9 female DTE adapter are supplied with the hub. If your management station requires a different adapter—such as a RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE or RJ-45-to-DB-25 male DCE adapter—you must provide it.

Step 1 Configure the hub console port settings to match the management station or modem. These are the default settings of the console port:

9600 baud

8 data bits

1 stop bit

No parity

No flow control

You can change the console port characteristics of the hub from the web-based System Configuration Page (see the “Changing the System Configuration” section on page 3-40) or by using the terminal command from the CLI.

Note Make sure the settings of the console port and the management station or the modem match.
