What are the settings to be used on the Serial Connection Software (e.g Putty/Hyper Terminal) for Switches?
What are the settings to be used on the Serial Connection Software (e.g Putty/Hyper Terminal) for Switches?
Updated over a week ago

The Switch’s serial port’s default settings are as follows:

  • 115200 baud

  • no parity

  • 8 data bits

  • 1 stop bit

  • Flow Control: None

A computer running a terminal emulation program capable of emulating a VT-100 terminal and a serial port configured as above are then connected to the Switch’s Console port.

With the serial port properly connected to a management computer, press the Enter key and enter the username and password.
