RS-232 Terminal Port
The management module can be managed locally through
this port with a console or a PC with a terminal emulation
program. This type of management method is referred to as
local or out-of-band management because it is not
conducted over a network.
The module comes with an RS-232 Serial Management
cable for this type of management. For instructions on how
to start a local session, refer to “Starting a Local
Management Session” on page 56 or the AT-S85 and
AT-S97 Management Software Command Line User’s
Guide.
The management module does not need an Internet
Protocol (IP) address for local management.
