The Avaya P130 has one serial port on the front panel of the switch for connecting a 
terminal, a terminal emulator, or a modem.
The serial port on the front panel is labelled “Console” and has a RJ-45 connector. 
Connect the P130 to a terminal or a terminal emulator using the supplied console 
cable and the RJ-45 to DB-9 adaptor. To connect a modem, use the supplied cable 
and an RJ-45 to DB-25 adaptor.

The cable and two adaptors can be found in the accessory set, and they are 

clearly marked.

The serial port settings for using a terminal or terminal emulator are as follows:
•

Baud Rate - 9600 bps

•

Data Bits - 8 bits

•

Parity  -  None

•

Stop  Bit  -  1

•

Flow  Control  -  None

•

Terminal Emulation - VT-100

A PPP connection with a modem can be established only after the  
Avaya P130 is configured with an IP address and net-mask, and the PPP parameters 
used in the Avaya P130 are compatible with the modem’s PPP parameters.

PPP interface.

The PPP interface configured with the set interface ppp command 

must be on a different subnet from the stack inband interface.
