c. Connect the adapter to the console port on the target
device.
Important: Many Cisco and Sun devices have console
ports with non-standard RJ-45 connections. Most can be
connected to the Dominion SX with a “serial rollover
cable.” This is NOT a standard Ethernet cable or
crossover Ethernet cable. If you have misplaced the
rollover cable that came with your Cisco or Sun device,
you can purchase one from Raritan (Part Number
CRLVR-15 or CRLVR-1).

2. Make sure the computer has a route to the Dominion SX’s
default IP address (192.168.0.192). Open a console
window and enter the route print command. If the default
IP address is NOT on the Active Routes list, do the
following:
a. On a Windows machine, type ipconfig and note your IP
window and enter the route print command. If the default
IP address is NOT on the Active Routes list, do the
following:

c. Type: ping 192.168.0.192. This should produce a
reply. If it does not, check the physical connection
between the computer and the Dominion SX, and
make sure you executed the route add command
correctly.
