Appendix A: Terminal operations
Each switch may be configured at the appliance level through the
Console menu interface accessed through the SETUP port. All
terminal commands are accessed through a terminal or PC running
terminal emulation software.
NOTE: The preferred method is to make all configuration settings in the local UI.
To connect a terminal to the switch:
1. Using the supplied RJ-45 to DB-9 (female) adapter and UTP
cable, connect a terminal or a PC that is running terminal
emulation software (such as HyperTerminal) to the SETUP port on
the back panel of the switch. The terminal settings are 9600 bits
per second (bps), 8 bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and no flow control.
2. Turn on each target device and then turn on the switch. When the
switch completes initialization, the Console menu will display the
following message: Press any key to continue.
Console boot menu options
While the switch is turning on, you can press a key to view the boot
menu. From this menu, you can choose one of four options.
•

•
Boot Alternate Firmware
•

Console main menu options
Once turned on, the main menu displays the product name and
version. From this menu, you can choose one of four options.
•
Network configuration: This menu option allows you to configure
the network setting of the appliance.
•
Debug messages: This menu option turns on console status
messages. Because this can significantly reduce performance, you
should only enable debug messages when instructed to do so by
Fujitsu Technical Support. When you are finished viewing the
messages, press any key to exit this mode.
