Cabling
- Plug Opengear's Cisco specific adapter Cable (Opengear PartNo 449016) into the Cisco device's console port (do not plug it into the console server's serial port, that won't work!)
- Use a common, straight ethernet patch cable to connect the console server's serial port to the socket of the adapter cable.
- Connect via SSH to
<IP of console server>
on port3000 + <PortNo>
. If your console server has the IP address of 192.168.3.3 and your Cisco device is connected to port 25, then connect via SSH to192.168.3.3:3025
using the user name and password you configured.
