Setting terminal parameters

To configure and manage the switch through the console port, you must run a terminal emulator
program, TeraTermPro or PuTTY, on your PC. You can use the emulator program to connect a
network device, a Telnet site, or an SSH site. For more information about the terminal emulator
programs, see the user guides for these programs.
The following are the required terminal settings:
•
Bits per second—9600.
•
Data bits—8.
•
Parity—None.
•
Stop bits—1.
•
Flow control—None.
