Connecting A Terminal; Power On - D-Link DES-6300 User Manual

Modular L3 Ethernet Switch User's Guide

Connecting a Terminal

The DES-6300 can perform basic switching functions without special configuration, but to use
the Switch's advanced features you must first configure the unit through a terminal (a VT-100
serial data terminal or a computer running a VT-100 emulator). The connection is made through
the Switch's Diagnostic RS-232 port, which is configured at the factory as follows:
Baud Rate:
Data Bits:
Parity:
Stop Bits:
Flow Control:
The RS-232 port has a nine-socket D-shell connector with IBM-type DCE wiring, and can be
connected to the terminal using an off-the-shelf RS-232 cable with the proper connectors for the
terminal and the DES-6300.

Power on

Power up the DES-6300 as follows:
Make sure the power module is properly installed in the device.
Plug the device end of the supplied power cord firmly into the power inlet on the
DES-6300's front panel of the redundant power supply.
Plug the outlet end of the power cord firmly into a suitable AC outlet.
Observe the DES-6300's LED indicators to make sure the Switch is operating
correctly.
The DES-6300's LED indicators operate as follows during a normal power-up:
