Start Management Session

Local
Management
Session
The initial management session for the AT-IS230-10GP switch may be
conducted via a local session by connecting to the Console port or a over
a network connection on any of the Ethernet ports of the switch.
This section contains the procedure for starting a local management
session on the switch. Please review the following information before
performing the procedure:
Local management sessions are conducted through the Console

port on the front panel.
Local management sessions do not interfere with the network

operations of the switch.
The switch comes with one 2 m (6.6 ft) management cable, with

RJ-45 and DB-9 connectors, for local management sessions. Refer
to Figure 19 on page 61.
The switch does not need an IP address for local management

sessions.
The Command Line Interface (CLI) is the only management

interface available when using the Console port.
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is available via

the CLI interfaces.
To start a local management session, perform the following procedure:
1. Connect the RJ-45 connector on your management cable to the
Console port on the switch.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to an RS-232 port on a terminal or
personal computer with a terminal emulation program.
3. Configure the VT-100 terminal or terminal emulation program as
follows:
Baud rate: 9600 bps (The baud rate of the Console port is

adjustable from 1200 to 115200 bps. The default is 9600 bps.)
Data bits: 8

Parity: None

Stop bits: 1

Flow controller: None

Note
The port settings are for a DEC VT100 or ANSI terminal, or an
equivalent terminal emulator program.
