Local (Out-of-Band) Management Session
If you are unable to establish a local (out-of-band) management session
with the switch through the Console RS-232 port on the front panel, do the
following:
Check to be sure that the RJ-45 serial management cable is
securely connected to the Console RS-232 port on the active
master control card and the RS-232 port on the terminal or
personal computer.
If the chassis has two control cards, verify that the management
cable is connected to the active master control card. You can
discern the active master card by examining the M/S LED. The
LED is solid green on the active master control card and solid or
flashing amber on the inactive master card.
Check to be sure that the operating parameters on the terminal or
the terminal emulation program, if you are using a personal
computer, have been set correctly. The default settings for the RJ-
45 serial terminal port are located in “Using Local Management to
Verify the Chassis” on page 192.
Check to be sure that the terminal emulator application is
compatible with a VT-100 terminal.
