Setting Up a Terminal for Local Management
If you are installing the switch in a TCP/IP environment or if you intend to
manage the switch from a remote site, you must first assign an IP
address to the switch using the Omega management interface, which
comes pre-installed on the switch along with the AT-S24 switch
software. To start an Omega management session, perform the
following steps:
1. Connect a terminal or a PC with a terminal emulator program to the
RS232 connector on the front panel of the switch. Use an RS232, DB-9
straight-through cable.
2. Configure the terminal or the terminal emulation program to the
following settings:
# Baud rate: 9600
# Data bits: 8
# Parity: None
# Stop bits: 1
# Flow control: None
3. Press Return.
The switch displays the Omega main menu.
You are now ready to use the Omega management software
interface to configure the switch. For instructions, refer to the
AT-S24 Management Software User’s Guide, which is available
from the Allied Telesyn web site.
