Connecting the
Control Terminal
The CoreBuilder 7000 family ATM switch can be configured via the LMA
using the Administration Console terminal (VT100) or terminal emulator
(Windows). To connect a terminal to the CoreBuilder 7000 family ATM
switch control port:
1 Prepare an RS-232 shielded cable (9 pin-to-9 pin or 9 pin-to-25 pin, as
dictated by the terminal you wish to use).
2 Configure the terminal: 19200 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity,
xon/xoff flow control.
3 Push the DCE side of the cable onto the Control port of the switch
module and screw it into place.
4 Connect the other end of the cable to the terminal.
In case you have installed a redundant switch unit, it is sufficient to
connect the RS-232 line to either the active switch control port or to the
redundant switch control port.
Connecting to the
Ethernet Port
The Ethernet port is used for connecting directly to a Transcend NMS
terminal for management purposes.
In case you have installed a redundant switch module, its Ethernet port
must also be connected directly to the Transcend NMS terminal.
Another way of connecting the Ethernet port to an out-of-band Ethernet
network is to connect it to a CoreBuilder 7200 Ethernet/ATM Interface
Card or a CB7400 High Density Ethernet/ATM Interface Card installed in
the same chassis.
