If you want to continue with direct console management at this time, refer
to chapter 2, "Using the Console Interface".
At the Switch 2000 site:
a.
Connect the modem to the Switch 2000's console port using an
RS-232-C modem cable. (For pin-outs and recommended cables refer
to appendix A, "Cables and Connectors".)
b. If necessary, configure the modem to operate with the current con-
figuration of the Switch 2000. (The modem's default configuration
may be sufficient.)
At the remote site, connect the terminal (or PC emulating a terminal) to
the remote modem using a modem cable. Make sure the terminal and
modems are functioning properly, then establish the link between the
terminal's modem and the Switch 2000's modem according to the modem
instructions.
