Micro USB Console

Use the console port to make a serial connection between your management system and the access point. You can order a micro USB console adapter for your access point using the part number ACC-WIFI-MICRO-USB.

The console port is located next to the USB port. For more information, see Hardware Ports - Front.

Note

When you connect to the Micro USB console port, the management station from which you connect to the device must have a VT100 emulation program, such as TeraTerm Pro (a free terminal emulator) or Hilgraeve HyperTerminal (provided with Windows operating systems from XP forward).

Note

The console port can only be used with the Extreme Networks console cable. You could damage the AP if you use another cable.
