NE10032 Installation Guide
Use the switch Command-Line Interface (CLI) to perform additional configuration
tasks. You can access the CLI using the serial console port or management port.
You can access the switch CLI through the serial console port on the front panel of
the switch. This port uses RS-232 serial communications. Use the console cable kit to
connect the serial console port to a terminal or a computer running a terminal
emulation program.
The console port terminal-emulation requirements are as follows:
 Default baud rate = 115,200 bps
 Character size = 8 characters
 Parity = none
 Stop bits = 1
 Data bits = 8
 Flow control = none
If the switch is connected to a network that employs DHCP, you can also access the
switch CLI through the RJ45 management port. This port uses Ethernet
communications and can be accessed using Telnet or SNMP via the IP address
provided by the network's DHCP server.
