Administration Console Interface

The administration console is an internal, character-oriented, VT-100/ANSI command-driven user
interface for performing management activities. Using this method, you can view the
administration console from a terminal, PC, Apple Macintosh, or UNIX workstation connected to
the switch's console port.
Figure 3-1
shows an example of this management method.

Set Up Your Switch Using Direct Console Access

The direct access management method is required when you initially set up your switch.
Thereafter, the convenience and additional features of the Web management access method make
it the best method to manage the switch. See
"Web Based Management Overview" on page 4-2
for
more information.
Direct access to the switch console is achieved by connecting the switch's console port to a
VT-100 or compatible terminal or to a PC, Apple Macintosh, or UNIX workstation equipped with
a terminal-emulation program. This connection is made using the null-modem cable supplied with
the switch.
