Setting Up For Local Management - Allied Telesis AT-8124XL Installation Manual

Setting Up for Local Management

If you are installing the switch in a TCP/IP environment or if you intend to
manage the switch from a remote site, you must first assign an IP address to
the switch using the AT-S30 management software and the management
interface, which comes pre-installed on the switch. To connect a terminal to
the switch and start a management session, perform the following steps:
1. Connect a terminal to the RS232 connector on the rear panel of the switch
using an RS232, DB-9 crossover cable.
2. Configure the terminal or the terminal emulator program to the following
settings:
Baud rate: 9600
G
Data bits: 8
G
Parity: None
G
Stop bits: 1
G
Flow control: None
G
3. Press Return.
The switch displays the switch's main menu.
You are now ready to use the management interface to configure the
switch. For instructions, refer to the AT-S30 Management Software User's
Guide. This guide is available on the Allied Telesyn web site at
