[QUOTE="halo200, post: 1768524, member: 37684"] Whenever I have the need to login to Cisco hardware via console i'll usually use screen since its built into the Mac anyway. Even so if im using USB to Serial converters I have had to install drivers for them. I have only once used console over a USB port once and I don't recall having to install the drivers for it, it might be different for the SG though. I'd be interested to see what happens when you plug the console port to your computer and you run from terminal: ls /dev/tty.* ls /dev/cu.* See if anything appears that resembles the SG and if so go with screen to try connect to it.
