Problems When Using Quick Config
Manager
You cannot access the hub.
For a successful local
management connection, you need to use a
standard null modem cable, and have the hub’s
console port set to 9600 baud (or autoconfiguration
enabled), the serial connection type set to ‘Terminal’,
and the flow control set to ‘NONE’. These are the
default settings. For information on the console port
settings, see
“Connecting a Modem to the Console
Port” on page 5-13
.
You forget your community string.
Log in to the
hub using VT100, and use the Edit User screen to
view your community string, see
“Editing Users” on
page 5-18
.
