Chapter 2: Getting Started with the Menus Interface
26 Section I: Using the Menus Interface
Starting a Local Management Session
You establish a local management session with the AT-9000/24 Gigabit
Ethernet switch by connecting a terminal or personal computer with a
terminal emulation program to the RS-232 console port on the front panel
of the switch.
Note
You do not need to assign an IP address to the switch to manage
the unit from a local management session.
To start a local management session, perform the following procedure:
1. Connect one end of the management cable included with the switch to
the console port on the AT-9000/24 Gigabit Ethernet switch, as shown
in Figure 1.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to the RS-232 port on a terminal or
PC with a terminal emulator program.
3. Configure the terminal or terminal emulator program as follows:
Baud per second: 9600
Data bits: 8
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None
Note
These settings are for a DEC VT100 or ANSI terminal, or an
equivalent terminal emulation program. You cannot change this.
