Introduction
Serial‐based Remote Product Management of the CDM‐800 Gateway Router is available using the rear panel ‘CONSOLE’ port.
1. To proceed with Serial‐based Remote Product Management, assumptions are made that:
• The CDM‐800 Gateway Router is operating with the latest version firmware files.
• The CDM‐800 is connected to a user‐supplied Windows‐based PC as follows:
o
The PC serial port is connected to the CDM‐800 rear panel ‘CONSOLE’ port using a user‐supplied serial cable.
o
The PC Ethernet port is connected to the CDM‐800 rear panel ‘MANAGEMENT | FE’ 10/100 BaseT Ethernet port
with a user‐supplied hub, switch, or direct Ethernet cable connection.
o
The PC is running a terminal emulation program (for operation of the CDM‐800 Serial Command Line Interface)
and a compatible Web browser (for operation of the CDM‐800 Web Server Interface).
• The CDM‐800 Management IP Address has been noted using the CDM‐800 Serial Command Line Interface (CLI).
