2 Initial Configuration

•Configure Spanning Tree parameters

•Configure Class of Service (CoS) priority queuing

•Configure up to 6 static or LACP trunks per switch, up to 32 per stack

•Enable port mirroring

•Set broadcast storm control on any port

•Display system information and statistics

•Configure any stack unit through the same IP address

Required Connections

The switch provides an RS-232 serial port that enables a connection to a PC or terminal for monitoring and configuring the switch. A null-modem console cable is provided with the switch.

Note: When configuring a stack, connect to the console port on the Master unit.

Attach a VT100-compatible terminal, or a PC running a terminal emulation program to the switch. You can use the console cable provided with this package, or use a null-modem cable that complies with the wiring assignments shown in the Installation Guide.

To connect a terminal to the console port, complete the following steps:

1.Connect the console cable to the serial port on a terminal, or a PC running terminal emulation software, and tighten the captive retaining screws on the DB-9 connector.

2.Connect the other end of the cable to the RS-232 serial port on the switch.

3.Make sure the terminal emulation software is set as follows:

•Select the appropriate serial port (COM port 1 or COM port 2).

•Set to any of the following baud rates: 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200

(Note: Set to 9600 baud if want to view all the system initialization messages.).

•Set the data format to 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity.

•Set flow control to none.

•Set the emulation mode to VT100.

•When using HyperTerminal, select Terminal keys, not Windows keys.

Notes: 1. When using HyperTerminal with Microsoft® Windows® 2000, make sure that you have Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 or later installed. Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 fixes the problem of arrow keys not functioning in HyperTerminal’s VT100 emulation. See www.microsoft.com for information on Windows 2000 service packs.

2.Refer to “Line Commands” on page 4-11for a complete description of console configuration options.

3.Once you have set up the terminal correctly, the console login screen will be displayed.
