Serial Port Access
The serial port is ready to use offhand without further configuration.
Port settings are:
115200 bps, serial speed might be different for customized system variants
8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit (8N1), no flow control
4.5.2.
Out-of-Band Access via Network
The RES240X has no IP address set by default, it is necessary to assign an IP address statically or enable dhcp.
Because the required configuration steps can only be done in the CLI, an initial access is required. The procedure for
assigning an IP address to the device is described in the following. User input is printed in bold letters.
1.
Connect to the serial port (lower) with supplied Kontron DB9 adapter
2.
Connect network to the Ethernet Service Port (upper)
3.
Ensure that the system is powered up
4.
Log in as admin and enter privileged mode by typing ’enable’. No passwords are required by default

(Ethernet Fabric) #serviceport ip 192.168.50.107 255.255.255.0
The GbE management interface is available from now on. Alternatively, DHCP can be set.
(Ethernet Fabric) #serviceport protocol dhcp
An IP address will be assigned to the serviceport by a DHCP server.
6.
Save configuration using the ‘write mem’ command and confirm with ’y’’
(Ethernet Fabric) #

This operation may take a few minutes. Management interfaces will not be available during
this time.
