Yes he will. Most distributions of Linux come with a program called
Minitab. It is similar to HyperTerminal.

Subject: dumb Linux terminal-router question
Next week I'm teaching basic router configuration to some high school
students. One of the students has a notebook computer that runs Linux.
Assuming there is a normal serial port on the notebook, will he able to
easily run a terminal emulator to connect to the console port on the Cisco
routers?
I know he'll be able to do Telnet once we have an initial config, but
before we get to that point, can he config the routers in a similar fashion
to the HyperTerminal the Windoze users will be using?
Thank-you very much for your help.
Priscilla
