3.5 Connecting Interface Cables

3.5.1 Connecting the Console Cable

Follow these steps to connect the console cable:

1) Select a console terminal.

The console terminal can be a standard ASCII terminal

possessing an RS-232 serial port, or, more often, a common PC.

2) Connect the console cable.

Disconnect the firewall from the power source. Plug the RJ-45

connector of the console cable into the console port of the firewall, and
the DB-9 (female) connector into the serial port of the console
terminal.

3) Verify the connection and power on the firewall.

The console terminal should display the startup information of the

firewall. For details, refer to Figure 3-8.
