Connect PC to switch using parallel/console connection
Open terminal emulation program (i.e. Putty)
- Use serial connection (check Windows device manager - Ports(COM & LPT) to check which port to use)

- Press connect
If the switch has not been configured (or has had a factory reset) you're asked to enter the initial configuration dialog; type no!:
Initial mode is user mode (Switch> prompt)
Typing enable gets you into privilege mode (Switch# prompt)
Typing ? shows available commands
Tab completion is available but if it's clear that only 1 command is available, finishing it is not necessary.
