Hi all,
I'm having a problem to connect into a console port at ASA5510. I've followed exactly step below but I'm not sure why I can't connect to it. Before this I can connect but somehow when I try it again, it won't work. Please advise.
Step 3 Connect to the Console port.
a. Before connecting a computer or
terminal to any ports, check to determine the baud rate of the serial
port. The baud rate must match the default baud rate (9600 baud) of the
Console port of the adaptive security appliance.
Set up the terminal as follows: 9600 baud (default), 8 data bits, no
parity, 1 stop bits, and Flow Control (FC) = Hardware.
b. Locate the serial console cable,
which has an RJ-45 connector on one end and a DB-9 connector on the
other end for the serial port on your computer.
c. Connect the RJ-45 connector to
the Console port of the adaptive security appliance as shown in Figure 6-2.
d. Connect the DB-9 connector to
the console port on your computer.
