juniper netscreen sn25 firewall - unable to ping and connect to console
I get a refurbished juniper netscreen sn25 firewall which come with com port to rj45 connector, but my laptop and server don't have com port already.
the firewall have port as below:
1 console port
1 modem port
4 -10/100 - 1,2,3,4 lan port
i try use a USB LAN with RJ45 connect to console port
but unable to ping 192.168.1.1 ( i also click the reset button in firewall )
is that correct to use usb lan with rj45 to connect to firewall console.
i also try usd to com and com to rj45. not work also
if there need to use any software to be able to connect to 192.168.1.1 of console port?
or this item is damaged? but the tech tell me they tested b4 ship to me.

The Console port is a serial port - you will have to connect to a COMx device on your PC, via HyperTerminal or any other terminal emulation software, using 9600/8/N/1/None. But the IP method is much better, as you can use the WebUI then.
