Port Access Requirements
When you connect to a serial port to access a server or another device, access rights to the specific serial port on ACS is required. Your system administrator can help with authorization to specific ACS ports that your server or device is connected to.
Note: If an authentication server is setup in your network, an authentication method and the related parameters should be setup to allow access to the connected devices. Consult your system administrator for configuring the authentication method.
When you select a port from the Serial pull-down list and click the Connect button, a Java applet viewer appears. A “Connected to” message in a gray area at the top of the screen shows the IP address of the ACS followed by the TCP port number. See an example of the Java applet in Figure 3-4
