Connecting the Local Console Manager
to a Terminal
The Local Console Manager (LCM) is a command-line interface for
configuring, monitoring, and managing the ELS10-26 through the
out-of-band RS232C connection on the front panel.
To connect LCM:
1. Connect your VT series terminal or terminal emulator to the
out-of-band management RS232C port on the front panel of
the ELS10-26 using the standard twisted pair cable with RJ45
connectors shipped with the unit. (Only three of the nine wires
are necessary: Receive Data, Transmit Data and ground.)
2. Set the terminal to 9600 baud, 8N1:8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no
parity, and XON/XOFF.
3. Press the Enter key several times. If the ELS10-26 is
operational, LCM responds with the
ELS10-26 >
prompt.
LCM is now ready to use.
Refer to the
ELS10-26 User’s Guide
for an overview of LCM and
the command syntax. LCM commands for the ELS10-26 are
provided in the User’s Guide in chapters dealing with those topics.
A complete list of LCM commands appears on the following pages.
