Connecting the Console Cable

The Avaya P330 has one serial port on the front panel of the switch for connecting a
terminal, a terminal emulator, or a modem.
The serial port on the front panel is labelled “Console” and has a RJ-45 connector.
Connect the P330 to a terminal or a terminal emulator using the supplied console
cable and the RJ-45 to DB-9 adaptor. To connect a modem, use the supplied cable
and an RJ-45 to DB-25 adaptor.

Note:

The cable and two adaptors can be found in the accessory set, and they are

clearly marked.

Configuring the Terminal Serial Port Parameters

The serial port settings for using a terminal or terminal emulator are as follows:

Baud Rate - 9600 bps

Data Bits - 8 bits

Parity - None

Stop Bit - 1

Flow Control - None

Terminal Emulation - VT-100

Connecting a Modem to the Console Port

A PPP connection with a modem can be established only after the
Avaya P330 is configured with an IP address and net-mask, and the PPP parameters
used in the Avaya P330 are compatible with the modem’s PPP parameters.
