Cisco ISA 3000 User Manual

Console Port
The Cisco ISA 3000 can be configured through a web interface, or through the console port. The console port
is either a RJ45 or a Mini USB connector. A standard management cable (Part number 72-3383-01) can be
used to convert the RJ45 to DB9 connector.
The default configuration settings for the RJ45 console port are:
• 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, no flow control.
• If the USB Console Port is active (cable inserted and remote PC drivers are enabled) by default the
console will switch from RJ45 to USB when the USB cable is detected. If both ports are connected, the
Mini USB console port is used.
If your laptop or PC warns you that you do not have the proper drivers to communicate with the device, you
can obtain them from your computers manufacturer, or go here:
