This chapter describes how to use the command line interface. The
command line interface is a quick and simple interface which allows
you to enter various IP address settings, reset the stack and initialize
the stack. The web interface can perform most of the tasks that the
command line interface can do.
You would normally use the command line interface if you have
many units that you want to set up quickly with IP address
information, for eventual management using an SNMP network
management application. Simple help is provided with each
command in the command line interface.
Ensure that your terminal or management station (which has the
terminal emulator) has been appropriately set up for your particular
management method and that any necessary connections have been
made. Refer to
If you have any problems using the command line interface, refer to
"Solving Problems With the Command Line Interface"
Accessing the Command Line Interface
By default, the Dual Speed Hub 500 automatically configures the
baud rate of its console port to operate with the connected
management station or terminal, provided the parity, stop bits and
character size are identical to the connected management station or
terminal. You may need to perform the wake-up procedure to initiate
the communication. To do this, press Return several times at the
management station or terminal.
The login sequence for the command line interface begins as soon as
the hub detects a connection to its console port, or as soon as a
Telnet session is started.
