After completing the hardware connections, configure the basic settings for

it using Java
• Command Line Interface: use console port to manage the switch.
3.3.1

Setting up through the console port

1. Use the supplied crossover RS-232 cable to connect to the console
port on the back of the switch. This port is a male DB-9 connector,
implemented as a data terminal equipment (DTE) connection.
Tighten the retaining screws on the cable to secure it on the
connector. Connect the other end of the cable to a PC running
terminal emulation software. e.g Hyper Terminal.
2. Use the supplied USB cable to connect to a PC. You have to install
the USB driver from the switch CD-ROM before the USB can work
properly. The USB drivers will simulate an additional COM port
under Windows Me/2K/XP OS.
