Remote Console Management Using a Modem and a Terminal
or PC Terminal Emulator
Note For remote console management use a full-duplex, asynchronous (character-
mode) modem.
1. At the Switch 800T site:
a. Connect the modem to the Switch 800T’s console port using an
RS-232-C modem cable. (For pin-outs and recommended cables refer
to appendix A, “Cables and Connectors”.)
b. If necessary, configure the modem to operate with the current con-
figuration of the Switch 800T. (The modem’s default configuration
may be sufficient.)
2. At the remote site, connect the terminal (or PC emulating a terminal) to
a modem using a modem cable. Make sure the terminal and modems are
functioning properly, then use the modem instructions to establish the
link between the terminal’s modem and the Switch 800T’s modem.
3. Refer to “Starting and Ending a Console Session” on page 2-2.
