Statement 1001
Your Cisco SNS-3515 or Cisco SNS-3595 appliance has a DCE-mode console port for connecting a console
terminal to your appliance. The appliance uses a DB-9 serial connector for the console port.
The console port on the Cisco SNS-3515 or Cisco SNS-3595 appliance includes an EIA/TIA-232 asynchronous
serial (DB-9) connector. This serial console connector (port) allows you to access the appliance locally by
connecting a terminal—either a PC running terminal-emulation software or an ASCII terminal—to the console
port.
To connect a PC running terminal-emulation software to the console port, use a DB-9 female to DB-9 female
straight-through cable.
To connect an ASCII terminal to the console port, use a DB-9 female to DB-25 male straight-through cable
with a DB-25 female to DB-25 female gender changer.
To connect a terminal or a PC running terminal-emulation software to the console port on the Cisco SNS-3515
or Cisco SNS-3595 appliance:
Step 1
Connect the terminal using a straight-through cable to the console port.
Step 2
Configure your terminal or terminal-emulation software for 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no hardware
flow control.
