Hi!

Well, in normal cases you have two async (RS-232) Ports on the 2509,
which are used to connect to a standard serial line.
Most Ciscos use roll-over-cables (the supplied blue ones), you can also
use a 9-pin rolling adapter from cyclades or sun netra on the Pc, and
connect a standard straight CAT5-cable.

Then use a standard terminal program like cu, tip, minicom or kermit to
connect at 9600 8N1 to the cisco.
