Introduction

Accessing the VT100 Interface
Screen Components
This chapter describes the menus and options associated with the WANsuite
5330's VT100 interface. The screens displayed throughout this chapter were
accessed through a TELNET session.
You can access the VT100 interface locally via the Supervisory port or
remotely through a TELNET session. To access the VT 100 screens locally,
verify the Supervisory type is "tty" and the Supervisory port speed matches
the terminal emulation program that's being used. (Port speeds supported
include the following: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and
115200 bps.) You can access the VT100 interface remotely by opening a
TELNET session, entering the unit's IP address, and connecting to the unit.
The VT100 terminal screens have several components common to all screens
(see Figure 4.1 below). These components include the device type (Verilink
WANsuite 5330), which is centered on the screen, the software and hardware
revision numbers (upper left), the date and time (upper right), the menu title
("Main" in the figure below), and the serial number under which the unit is
operating.
