Setting up Serial Port Communications
To set up serial port communications:
1. Connect the serial cable between the host computer serial port (COM1 or
COM2) and the router serial port.
2. Power on the router.
3. Power on the server.
4. Start the host terminal or terminal interface program (Microsoft Windows 9x,
Windows NT 4.0, or Windows 2000 HyperTerminal).
5. Set the terminal or terminal interface program to use the appropriate COM
port.
6. Configure the selected COM port.
7. Press Enter several times. The router will automatically detect the baud rate
being used. The baud rate will be retained through future power cycles.
Note:
This process can take up to 90 seconds. The Power On Self Test (POST) and
initialization information may not be visible on screen.
Note:
The baud rate in the terminal emulation program must be set at 9600,
19200, 38400, 57600, or 115200 to use the autobaud feature.
