The Edge User's guide says: "Connect the serial console to your VPN-1 Edge appliance's serial port, using an RS-232 Null modem cable."
Also says: "Your terminal emulation software must be set to 57600 bps, N-8-1." So I guess you are at least close regarding the terminal emulation settings. Are you sure about that cable? I don't think a Cisco console cable would work but I have a serial cable that came with a Nokia appliance and using that I have in fact being able to connect to an Edge with no prob. Also remember that using the web interface you can change the setting for the serial port to be either for console or dialup purposes and I'm guessing that if you have is set for dialup it would just not respond to a console connection attempt. Do you know how it is set right now? Regards On 12/12/06, Fred Katsumi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
If it works with modem then try a null modem cable or with Rx and Tx reversed. You may have to adjust the speed as well. -----Original Message----- From: Mailing list for discussion of Firewall-1 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael Schwartzkopff Sent: Tuesday, December 12, 2006 10:53 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [FW-1] Serial console on EDGE Hi, I have a problem establishing a serial connection to a EDGE. I tried minicom (LINUX) and hyperterm (Windows), two different serial cables (blue cisco type) and two different EDGE boxes which are configured in a HA configuration. Serial configuration is 57600, 8N1. Same setup works with a modem and other components (9600, 8N1). Anybody a idea why I am not able to connect to my EDGEs? Thanks. ================================================= To set vacation, Out-Of-Office, or away messages, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the BODY of the email add: set fw-1-mailinglist nomail ================================================= To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ================================================= If you have any questions on how to change your subscription options, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] ================================================= ================================================= To set vacation, Out-Of-Office, or away messages, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the BODY of the email add: set fw-1-mailinglist nomail ================================================= To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ================================================= If you have any questions on how to change your subscription options, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] =================================================
