Console Port

38
You use the Console port to configure the features and parameter settings
of the switch with the command line interface in the AlliedWare Plus
management software. This management is called local management
because it is not conducted over your network. You have to be at the
physical location of the switch. The Console port has these settings:
Default baud rate: 9600 bps (Range is 9600 to 115200 bps)

Data bits: 8

Parity: None

Stop bits: 1

Flow control: None

Note
These settings are for a DEC VT100 or ANSI terminal, or an
equivalent terminal emulation program.
To perform local management sessions, you need a management cable to
connect your workstation to the Console port. Two cables are available
from Allied Telesis. One cable comes with the switch. It has an RJ-45
(8P8C) connector that connects to the Console port on the switch and a
DB-9 (D-sub 9-pin) connector that connects to your workstation. Refer to
Figure 11.

For workstations without a DB-9 connector, such as laptop computers,
Allied Telesis offers the VT-Kit3 management cable. It has a USB-A male
connector that connects to a USB port on your workstation. Refer to
Figure 12.
