Accessing the RJ-45 Console Port with a DB-9 Adapter
You can connect to the console using an RJ-45 to RJ-45 rollover cable and an
RJ-45 to DB-9 female DTE adapter to a terminal server (for example, a PC).
The pin assignments between the console and a DTE terminal server are as follows:

Default Configuration
When you install the Dell Networking OS onto your S3048–ON system, it is not
configured when you power up for the first time (except for the default host name,
which is Dell).
You must configure the system using the CLI.
