After you have connected your console to the IBM 2212 and have powered on
the console and the IBM 2212, you will see a sequence of informational status
messages. When you see the prompt Please press the space bar to
obtain the console, press the space bar to attach the IBM 2212 to your
session. The system acknowledges this action with the message
Console granted to this interface, and by displaying the OPCON
command prompt on the console after the code loading is complete.
Note:
If you are at an IBM 2212 that has never been configured, the system presents
the command prompt Config (only)> . Otherwise, you will see
the OPCON (*) prompt.
