USB Console Port
To manage the switch through an RS-232 serial interface, use the upper universal serial bus (USB)
console port. This port provides a direct connection to the switch and allows you to access the
command-line interface (CLI) from a console terminal connected to the port through the provided serial
cable (with USB UART-A to back-plane to CMC).
The console port supports asynchronous data of eight data bits, one stop bit, no parity bit, and no flow
control. The default baud rate is 115,200 bps. The lower USB port (in the following figure) functions as an
external flash drive that you can use to store configuration files, load new images, and import or export
scripts or report files used in virtualization applications.
