Validated Switches

The following switches (and firmwares) have been validates to work with the Anvil!:

  • DGS-3130-series

Other models will be similar, but this is the tested model.

Serial Connection

Note: Depending on your terminal emulator, the <Backspace> key may not work. If it doesn't, try pressing ctrl + h to delete the character to the left of your cursor.

You can use screen to connect to the switch. The example below is what you would use on most servers with an on-board serial port. If you have two, then port two would be /dev/ttyS1. If you are using a USB to serial adaptor, then you will use /dev/ttyUSB0 (or if it is a multi-port adapter, /dev/ttyUSB1, etc). If none of these work, you will need to consult your operating system documentation and/or serial port adapter to determine the proper /dev/ttyX device to use.

screen /dev/ttyUSBO 115200

The screen will be blank until you press <enter>.
