So I have 2 new Dell Powerconnect 3524P switches. I just want to get in and configure them with an IP and changing the default password. I can't console into them. I press the reset button on the fron as I do not know the IP's of them.
I have my serial to RJ-45 cable and Serial to USB cable since my PC does not have a serial port on it.
So I attach the serial cable to the back of the switch then plug in my PC
Open Putty
I use the serial option under COM3 since COM1 and COM2 are unable to connect.
I get the blank putty screen but nothing shows up after a while.
Can anyone here help me out a bit on how I can console into these? Thanks in advance. Much appreciated.
