5.2 NETWORK / CONTROL Card
The network port of the NETWORK / CONTROL card runs at 10/100 Mbits, half-duplex,
with auto-negotiation. The device used to connect the ConsoleServer to the network
(i.e., a hub or switch) must support this configuration.
Materials:
•
SCS3230 network port
•
network point-of-connection (i.e., a switch or hub)
•
RJ45-terminated Cat 5 cable (standard LAN cable)
1. Configure the ConsoleServer network parameters to the desired values as
outlined in section 6.5.
2.
Configure the network point-of-connection. It must be manually set to 10 Mbits, half-
duplex, with no auto-negotiation.
3.
Connect the ConsoleServer network port to the network using a standard LAN cable.
4.
Check the status lights at the network end of the connection. It should indicate a good
link. Try reaching the IP address assigned to the ConsoleServer by using
PING or
TELNET. If there is a problem, check the network configuration on both ends.
5.3 Modem Card
Materials:
•
SCS3230 modem port
•
Analog telephone line (POTS)
•
RJ11 modular telephone cable
1.
Locate the modular jack for the telephone line to be used. Select a telephone
cable with sufficient length to reach between the jack and the ConsoleServer.
2.
Connect one end of the telephone cable to the jack. Connect the other end to
the ConsoleServer modem port.
3.
Make sure the ConsoleServer is powered. Dial the telephone number of the line
connected to the ConsoleServer. The modem should automatically answer. If
not, check the telephone line and connections.
