Chapter 3 Configuration

3.1 Purpose

This chapter provides information about configuring GRT series.
Note: After you have completed all necessary setting for GRT series, make sure to write the new configuration to
NVRAM by "write" command and reboot the system, or all of your changes will not take effect.

3.2 Logon Procedure

There are three methods to logon to GRT series: serial console, Telnet, and
web interface. For the first time configuration, perhaps only the serial console
mode could be used because applications requiring Internet protocol (IP)
communication, such as Telnet and web interface, are not available unless a
management IP is configured properly for your local networking environment.
After connecting all the necessary cables described in Chapter 2 Installation,
power on GRT series and select one of the following procedures to access
GRT series.
Note: It is recommended that only one configuration application is used to setup GRT series at any given time, that is,
Telnet, serial console and the web management interfaces should not be used simultaneously.

3.2.1 Serial console

Check the connectivity of the RS-232 cable from your computer to the serial
port of GRT series. Start your terminal access program with VT100 terminal
emulation. Configure the serial link with baudrate of 9600, 8 data bits, no parity
check, 1 stop bit, and no flow-control, and press the SPACE key until the login
screen appears. When you see the login screen, you can logon to GRT series.
