Setting Up Your Laptop or PC Monitor

You need a laptop or PC to make a serial line connection to the
switch to complete initial switch setup. Table 2-1 lists the settings
required for the laptop or PC monitor to communicate with the
switch.

Configuring the Supervisor Module Using the CLI

To connect to the Web Agent, you must first use the serial command
line interface (CLI) to configure the switch’s IP address and a
subnetwork mask on the supervisor module.

To configure the supervisor module using the CLI:

1. Attach a 9-pin straight-through male-to-female serial cable

from the serial port on your laptop or PC to the serial port on
the supervisor module’s front panel (Figure 2-1).
