Chapter 6: Command Line Console Management
6. Command Line Console Management
The Hardened Ethernet Extender Switch provides a command line console inter-
face for configuration purposes. The Hardened Ethernet Extender Switch can be
configured either locally through its RS-232 port or remotely via a Telnet session.
For the latter, you must specify an IP address for the Hardened Ethernet Extender
Switch first.
This chapter describes how to configure the Hardened Ethernet Extender Switch
using its console by Command Line.
6.1 Administration Console
Connect the DB9 straight cable to the RS-232 serial port of the device to the
RS-232 serial port of the terminal or computer running the terminal emulation
application.
To gain direct access to the administration console, directly connect a terminal or
a PC equipped with a terminal-emulation program (such as HyperTerminal) to the
Hardened Ethernet Extender Switch console port.
When using the management method, configure the terminal-emulation program
to use the following parameters (you can change these settings after login):
[Default parameters]
115,200bps
8 data bits
No parity
1 stop bit
