Follow these steps to connect to the Console port:
1. Unscrew the waterproof protective cap on the AP’s Console port.
2. Attach the DB-9 end of the included serial cable to a DB-9 COM port connector
on a management PC. Use a USB to male DB-9 adapter cable (not included) if
needed.
3. Attach the RJ-45 end of the serial cable to the Console port on the AP.
4. Configure the PC’s COM port required settings using VT-100 terminal emulator
software (such as HyperTerminal) running on the management PC.
5. Log in to the command-line interface (CLI) using default settings:
■
User — admin
■
Password — null (there is no default password)
6. When you have completed your console session, remove the console cable and
replace the waterproof cap on the connector.
For a detailed description of connecting to the console and using the AP’s
command line interface (CLI), refer to the Management Guide.
