Chapter 2

Use the Command-Line Interface

You can manage the switch from the command-line interface (CLI) by

connecting your personal computer directly to the switch console port or

through the network by using Telnet. This procedure explains how to access

the CLI through the console port.

1. Connect the supplied RJ45-to-DB-9 adapter cable to the standard 9-pin

serial port on the personal computer.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to the console port on the switch.

3. Start a terminal-emulation program on the personal computer.

4. Configure the personal computer terminal emulation software for 9600

bits per second, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.

5. Use the CLI to enter commands to configure the switch.

See the Cisco Switch Command Reference Manual, available at

http://www.cisco.com

for more information.

Use SNMP Management Applications

You can use SNMP management applications such as IntraVue by Network

Vision or HP OpenView to configure and manage the switch.

WARNING

The console port is intended for temporary local programming

purposes only and not intended for permanent connection. If

you connect or disconnect the console cable with power

applied to this module or the programming device on the other

end of the cable, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause

an explosion in hazardous location installations. Be sure that

power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before

proceeding.
