System Requirement and Setup

The XD5300 series uses the console port as the command line interface. Please use the
console cable in the accessory box, and connect it between the controller and the
server/host. The CLI function can be accessed by using terminal emulator on a
management host that directly connected to the serial port of the XCubeDAS series.
The following procedure will help you to setup the serial console via the console cable that
