Starting a Local Management Session
This procedure requires a VT100 terminal or a VT100 terminal emulator
program and the management cable that comes with the switch. To start a
local management session on the switch, perform the following procedure:
1. Connect the RJ-45 connector of the management cable to the console
port on the front panel of the switch, as shown in Figure 44.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to an RS-232 port on a terminal or
computer with a terminal emulator program.

Default baud rate: 9,600 bps (range is 9,600 to 115,200 bps)
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1

Note
The port settings are for a DEC VT100 or ANSI terminal, or an
equivalent terminal emulator program.
