Configuring the Workstation Serial Port
To configure the workstation serial port:
1. Connect the cable with an RJ45 to DB9F adapter from a COM port on the
management workstation to the serial port on the router.
2. Configure the workstation serial port according to your platform. These steps
may vary according to the operating system version you use:
For Windows:
a. Open the HyperTerminal application: On the Windows Start
menu, click Programs, point to Accessories, point to
Communications, and then click HyperTerminal.
b. Enter a name for the router connection, choose an icon in the
Connection Description window, and then click OK.
c. In the COM Properties window, type the following COM Port
settings, and then click OK.
Bits per second—115200
Data Bits—8
Parity—None
Stop Bits—1
Flow Control—None
For Linux:
a. Set up minicom to use the serial port. Create or modify the
/etc/minirc.dfl file with the following content:
pr portdev/ttyS0
pu minit
pu mreset
pu mhangup
Where pr portdev/ttyS0 specifies port 0 on the
workstation. Select the pr setting to match the workstation port
to which you connected the router.
b. Verify that all users have permission to run minicom. Review the
/etc/minicom.users file and confirm that the line ALL exists
or that there are specific user entries.
For Solaris:
Modify the /etc/remote file to include the following line:
\:dv=/dev/term/a:br#115200:el=^C^S^Q^U^D:ie=%$:oe=^D:
