The ConsoleServer 3200 is designed so that the default device port communications
settings will match the communications settings of most Sun® server and workstation
console ports (9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, one stop bit). Other equipment types
(i.e., Cisco®) frequently use similar communications settings; check the manuals
included with the equipment for the correct settings. The table below lists the default
serial port communications settings for the ConsoleServer 3200. Sections 6.3 and 6.4
outline the commands for changing the terminal and device port communications
settings.
The following tables list the adapter part number and port configuration for some
common equipment types that may be connected to the ConsoleServer 3200. Note that
in some cases, an additional cable or adapter is included with the equipment to convert
a proprietary pinout to an EIA-standard pinout. Also, note that it is not possible to
connect the RJ45 serial port of the ConsoleServer directly to the RJ45 serial port
of any third-party equipment
. Sun Netra servers, Cisco switches, and other similar
devices require a special adapter or cable to connect to the ConsoleServer. The
adapter or cable is usually provided by the manufacturer of the equipment (e.g., Sun),
or may need to be created by the user. The adapters and cables from the equipment
manufacturer are usually designed to interface directly to a terminal, so the
ConsoleServer device port must be configured as DTE rather than its default value of
DCE. Lightwave Communications has pre-made adapters and kits for some common
equipment types; contact Lightwave for information regarding your specific application.
The reference diagram on page 14 shows the proper cabling for some common
equipment configurations.
