ARX 6000 Hardware Installation Guide
The System Control Module (SCM) provides the following management
ports:
• Console - a serial Console port for connecting a console terminal, and
• MGMT - a 10/100 Ethernet port for an out-of-band (OOB) management
station.

During the initial-boot process described in this chapter, you can only access
the serial Console port. You configure the OOB management port

Set the following console-terminal parameters to match those on the SCM's
Console port:
• 9600 baud rate (default)
