Chapter 2 Switch Installation
Configuring the Switch
Follow one of these procedures:
• To run the terminal emulation program through the switch console port, go to “Connecting through
the Switch Console Port” section on page 2-8 .
• To run the terminal emulation program through the CMC port, go to “Connecting through the CMC”
section on page 2-9 .
Connecting through the Switch Console Port
Follow these steps when connecting through the switch console port:
Step 1 Connect one end of the console cable to the switch console port. Connect the other end of the cable to
the serial port of the PC that is running the terminal emulation application. (See
Figure 2-4 .)

Step 2 Start the terminal emulation session so that you can see the output display from the power-on self-test
(POST). The terminal-emulation software—a PC application such as Hyperterminal or
ProcommPlus—makes communication between the switch and your PC or terminal possible.
Configure the baud rate and character format of the PC or terminal to match these console port default
characteristics:
• 9600 baud
• 8 data bits
• 1 stop bit
• No parity
• None (flow control)
Step 3 Go to the “Waiting for POST to Complete” section on page 2-10 to finish configuring the switch.
