Hi,
I have the following questions and hope someone could please help me. I have a Flextronics 24 port switch part number F-X430061. I don't know anything about this switch and normally with any other switches including Cisco, I can just simply using the Windows version of either Putt or Tera Terms to connect to it with 9600, 8, none, 1 with either no flow control or XON/XOFF. However on this Flextronics F-X430061 switch, I am unable to see a response and/or anything on the screen. So these are my questions, as I need to be able to rest to factory default, setup an IP address, and/or update the Firmware for it:
1/ Does the switch requires a certain type of software utility to connect, or I can just simply use Tera Term or Putty?
2/ What type of cable can I use? I tried using the original blue Cisco cable with DB9 9 pin serial at one end and RJ45 at the other end. I also tried using the blue Cisco cable connected to the DB9 serial connectors at both ends.
3/ I also tried all these serial settings: 9600 to 57600 baud rate, 8, none, 1. Flow Control either none or XON/XOFF
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Sincerely,
Mike
