Using the Console Interface

You can access the switch as needed through the command line interface.

The switch is accessible using the following connectors:

• Summit switches: 9-pin, RS-232 ports.

On a stand-alone switch, the console port is located on the front panel.

Note

For more information on the console port pinouts, see the hardware installation guide for your switch.

After the connection is established, you will see the switch prompt and can now log in.
