The initial set up of your Switch is now complete and the Switch is ready
for you to set up your chosen management method. See "Methods of
Managing a Switch" on page 32.
If you do not intend to use the command line interface using the console
port to manage the Switch, you can logout, disconnect the serial cable
and close the terminal emulator software.
This section describes how you can set up command line interface
management using a local console port connection or over the network.
User interface configuration is provided by the Switch to configure and
manage the port data. There are two types of user interfaces:
AUX User Interface—used to log in to your Switch using the console port.
VTY User Interface—used to Telnet to the Switch. The Switch can have
up to five VTY user interfaces.
To manage a Switch using the command line interface using the local
console port connection:
1 Ensure you have connected your workstation to the console port correctly
as described in "Connecting to the Console Port" on page 38.
2 Your Switch is now ready to continue being managed and/or configured
through the CLI using its console port.
To manage a Switch using the command line interface over a network
using Telnet:
1 Ensure you have already set up the Switch with IP information as
described in "Methods of Managing a Switch" on page 32.
2 Check that you have the IP protocol correctly installed on your
management workstation. You can check this by trying to browse the
World Wide Web. If you can browse, the IP protocol is installed.
