GETTING STARTED
3.5 ACCESSING LOCAL MANAGEMENT VIA MODEM
Local management can be accessed through a Hayes, or Hayes
Compatible Modem meeting the AT Command Set. The modem is
attached to the 9 pin port labeled CONSOLE on the MRXI.
3.5.1 Cable Configuration
Local Management is accessed by an RS232 cable available from
Cabletron Systems. This cable connects the modem to the MRXI
Console port.
The pin out for a cable, and a 9 pin connector at the MRXI end of the
cable, should be configured as follows:
9 Pin Male Connector
(MRXI end)
Pin 2 (Transmit)
Pin 3 (Receive)
Pin 5 (Ground)
Pin 7 (Request to Send)
Pin 8 (Clear to Send)
3.5.2 Accessing Local Management
Before accessing Local Management using the modem, the MRXI baud
rate must be set to the rate of the modem. Using a terminal, set the
baud rate at the Device/Port Screen. The default setting is 9600. Refer
to Chapter 4 USING THE DEVICE/PORT INFORMATION
SCREEN for information on changing the displayed parameters.
After verifying the baud rate proceed as follows:
1. Plug the 9 pin end of the cable into the port labeled CONSOLE on
the MRXI.
2. Plug the 25 pin end of the cable into the 25 pin RS232 port on the
modem.
