Administration Console Telnet Interface

The administration console is an internal, character-oriented, VT-100/ANSI menu-driven user

interface for performing management activities. Using this method, you can view the

administration console from a terminal, PC, Apple Macintosh, or UNIX workstation connected to

the switch’s console port.

Figure 4-1 shows an example of this management method.

Set Up Your Switch Using Direct Console Access

The direct access management method is required when you initially set up your switch.

Thereafter, the convenience and additional features of the Web management access method

(described in chapter 4) make it the best method to manage the switch.

Direct access to the switch console is achieved by connecting the switch’s console port to a

VT-100 or compatible terminal or to a PC, Apple Macintosh, or UNIX workstation equipped with

a terminal-emulation program. This connection is made using the null-modem cable supplied with

the switch.
