Good day,

Would someone please explain exactly what is needed to connect a PC to the Ethernet port on the processor for PC Adminstration? So far I've not found much in Avaya docs.

Many Thanks!

 
Hi DJTelco,
You are connecting to the Admin port, not the ethernet port (reserved for future use). The Admin port is an RS-232 type.

Most of us use the Avaya 355A adapter and a straight through CAT-5 cable or the cable from an MLX series Legend / Magix phone. There is a pinout posted if you do a search. It's easier to just buy the adapter.

Many thanks. I have the 355A (from Magix use) but like a dummy I plugged into Ethernet port.
 
Hi DJTelco,
It's okay. It's a Monday combined with wishful thinking! [wink]
