Starting a Local Management Session

100
This procedure explains how to start a local management session on a
stack. You can establish the session using any switch in the stack. After
establishing the session, go to "Verifying the Stack" on page 102. The
procedure requires a VT100 terminal or a VT100 terminal emulator that
comes with the switch.
To start a local management session on the stack, perform the following
procedure:
1. Connect the RJ-45 connector of the management cable to the console
port on the front panel of any switch in the stack. Refer to Figure 39.
Figure 39. Connecting the Management Cable to the Console Port

computer with a terminal emulator program.
3. Configure the terminal or terminal emulator program as follows:
Default baud rate: 9,600 bps (range is 9,600 to 115,200 bps)

Data bits: 8

Parity: None

Stop bits: 1


equivalent terminal emulator program.
