Setting terminal parameters

To configure and manage the switch, you must run a terminal emulator program on the console terminal.
If your PC runs Windows Server 2003, add the HyperTerminal component before performing the
following steps to log in to and manage the switch. If your PC runs Windows Server 2008, Windows 7,
Windows Vista, or any other operating system, prepare third-party terminal control software, and follow
the software user guide or help to configure the terminal.
The following are the required terminal settings:
Bits per second—9,600

Parity—None
•
Stop bits—1
