All figures denoting the range a given cable type can achieve must be treated as maximum
values. A number of variables can limit the actual range that can be achieved – grade of
cable used, quality of cable, and presence of joins in cable runs, for example
2.1.3. Management options available with the MS888G2
The MS888G2 supports multiple management options to allow administrators to quickly configure
and monitor the switch and network performance. There are four management options available
including RS-232 console, Command Line Interface (CLI), SNMP or via the built in Web
Management. The following procedures will briefly describe how each method can be performed
and will also be discussed in more detail later in this manual.
Section 2-1-3-1: Configuring the MS888G2 through the RS-232 serial port.
Section 2-1-3-2: Configuring the MS888G2 through the Ethernet port.
2.1.3.1. Configuring the MS888G2 through the RS-232 serial port
When configuring the MS888G2 via the RS-232 console please connect the switch via the
provided serial cable to a DCE device such as a PC. Once you have connection run a terminal
emulation program such as Hyper Terminal. When connecting to the switch please use the serial
settings of the switch to create the connection, the default settings are below:
Baud Rate:
57600
Data Bits:
8
Parity:
None
Stop Bits:
1
Flow Control:
None
