Connecting to the Switch

The Console port is a male DB-9 connector that enables connection of a PC or terminal for monitoring and configuring the Switch. Use the supplied RS-232 cable to connect a terminal or PC to the Console port.

The Console configuration (out of band) allows you to set your Switch to enable a user at a remote console terminal to communicate with the Switch as if the remote terminal were directly connected to it.
