I’ve looked at this and there’s nothing in the console port config at all. I’ve tried disabling and re-enabling the console port in the config, as well as rebooting the switch to see if there was some “negotiation” going on. I’m able to connect to the console using a Cisco 2511 terminal server, as well as just a regular serial connection to a PC. It’s just the connection to this MRV console server that isn’t working. This is what I get:
InReach:0 >>telnet 172.28.1.2 2100 Entering character mode Escape character is ^] . ÿÿÿÿ¿ÿÿÿÿÿÿ¿ÿÿ I can remove the cable from the EX4200 and plug it into anything else and it works fine, so I’m stumped as to why any EX doesn’t work. -evt From: Will O'Brien - NOAA Affiliate [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, December 31, 2015 12:04 PM To: Eric Van Tol <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [j-nsp] EX4200 console port woes double check the console port config... .

I'm hoping someone else may have come across this or tell me where I'm being stupid. I'm using a rolled cable that works fine with the SRX and various Cisco consoles. Console server is configured with 8N1, no flow control, 9600bps, but when I try to connect to the EX, I get gibberish on the screen and framing errors showing up in the port stats on the console server. Pinouts for both the EX and SRX (and I imagine all Juniper gear) are the same: EX: http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/en_US/release-independent/junos/topics/reference/specifications/port-ex-series-console-connector-pinout.html SRX: http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/en_US/release-independent/junos/topics/reference/specifications/rj45-connector-pinout-srx110-for-console-port.html I cannot figure out what's going on with the EX. Again, cable has been tested with multiple other kit, so it's not a cable issue AFAIK.
