Locally accessing the Onboard Administrator
The Onboard Administrator can be accessed locally through a serial port connector on the rear
of the Onboard Administrator module. Use a laptop or another computer as a serial console to
communicate with the Onboard Administrator. A laptop or PC connected to the Onboard
Administrator serial port requires a null-modem cable. The minimum connection to an external
console is pins 2, 3, and 5.
1. Connect a serial cable between the serial port on the computer and the corresponding serial
port on the Onboard Administrator module. The following table is for the DB9 serial (RS232)
port and shows the pinout and signals for the RS232 connector. The signal direction is DTE
(computer) relative to the DCE (modem).
