Connecting a Console to the Router

Before you create a network management connection for the router or connect the router to the network, you
must create a local management connection through a console terminal and configure an IP address for the
router. The router can be accessed using remote management protocols, such as SSH, Telnet, SCP and FTP.
By default, SSH is included in the software image. But telnet is not part of the software image. You must
manually install the telnet optional package to use it.
You also can use the console to perform the following functions, each of which can be performed through
the management interface after you make that connection:
• configure the router using the command-line interface (CLI)
• monitor network statistics and errors
• configure Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent parameters
• initiate software download updates via console
You make this local management connection between the asynchronous serial port on a console device capable
of asynchronous transmission. Typically, you can use a computer terminal as the console device.
