The serial port can be used to connect the switch to a computer workstation to
configure the switch IP address without connecting to the fabric. The serial port’s
parameters are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.
The port requires a straight serial cable with a female 9-pin subminiature-D
connector. Only pins 2, 3, and 5 are supported, as shown in Table 8.
Note:
For dust and ESD (electrostatic discharge) protection, a cover is provided for the
serial port and should be kept on the port whenever the serial port is not in use.
