To configure the system, connect a serial cable to a COM port on a PC or
notebook computer and to serial (console) port of the Managed Switch.
The console port of the Managed Switch is DCE already, so that you can
connect the console port directly through PC without the need of Null
Modem.
A terminal program is required to make the software connection to the
Managed
Switch. Windows' Hyper Terminal program may be a good
choice. The Hyper Terminal can be accessed from the Start menu.

♦ Baud
♦ Parity
