Using the BayStack 410-24T 10BASE-T Switch2-10 309985-C Rev 00Console/Comm PortThe serial console interface is an RS-232 port that enables a connection to a PC orterminal for monitoring and configuring a standalone switch or a stackconfiguration.You can also connect this port to an external modem to enable remotedial-in management of the switch. The port is a male DB-9 connector, implementedas a data communication equipment (DCE) connection.To use the Console/Comm port, you need the following equipment:• A VT100 or ANSI-compatible terminal, or a PC with a serial port and theability to emulate a VT100 terminal.Configure the terminal settings as follows:-- 9600 baud-- No parity-- 8 bits-- 1 stop bit-- Flow control set to Xon/Xoff-- Window Terminal Emulator option set to NO-- Terminal Preferences: Function, Arrow, and Control keys active-- Buffer size set to 24• A UL-listed straight-through RS-232 cable with a female DB-9 connector forthe console port on the switch.The other end of the cable must have a connector appropriate to the serial porton your computer or terminal. (Most terminals or computers use a male DB-25connector.)Any cable connected to the console port must be shielded to comply withemissions regulations and requirements.See “DB-9 (RS-232-D) Console/Comm Port Connector” on page D-1 for adescription of the pin assignments.
