1. Internal Ports

Connecting a Console Terminal

After the I/O Aggregator powers on, complete all external cabling connections

and connect a terminal to the blade to configure the switch.

To monitor and configure the Aggregator using the serial console, use the

USB console port on the front panel of the switch ( Figure 1-3) to connect it

to a VT100 terminal or to a computer running VT100 terminal emulation

software. The console port is implemented as a data terminal equipment

(DTE) connector.

The following equipment is required to use the console port:

•

VT100-compatible terminal or a desktop or a portable computer with a

serial port running VT100 terminal emulation software, such as Microsoft

HyperTerminal.

•

A serial cable (provided) with a USB type-A connector for the console port

and DB-9 connector for the terminal.

Perform the following tasks to connect a terminal to the switch console port:

1 Connect the DB-9 connector on the serial cable to the terminal or

computer running VT100 terminal emulation software.

2 Configure the terminal emulation software as follows:

Select the appropriate serial port (for example, COM 1) to connect to

the console.

Set the data rate to 9600 baud.

Set the data format to 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity.

Set the flow control to none.

Set the terminal emulation mode to VT100.

Select Terminal keys for Function, Arrow, and Ctrl keys. Ensure that

the setting is for Terminal keys (not Microsoft Windows keys).

Connect the USB connector on the cable directly to the switch console port.

The console port on the Aggregator is located below the fixed 40GbE ports

(Figure 1-3).
