Page 207: Appendix
This appendix describes how to start a terminal session with the Cisco 1240 Connected Grid Router (CGR 1240 or router) using the console port. Start a terminal session with the router when you are at the router installation location and want to administer the router with a direct connection using the command-line interface (CLI) software.
