Logging in through the console or AUX port

The AUX port can be used as the backup of the console port. Using the AUX port for local login is the
same as using the console port. This example describes the console port configuration and login

procedure.
By default, the first time you access the CLI you must log in through the console port.
To log in through the console port, make sure the console terminal has a terminal emulation program (for
example, HyperTerminal in Windows XP) and the port settings of the terminal emulation program are the

same as the default settings of the console port shown in

Table 10
