Initial Configuration Using the Console

Initial Configuration

The Configuration command-language interface (CLI) is accessed by using a VT-100 (or
compatible terminal) to the console port of the switch. The terminal port parameters are fixed at:
9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and without flow control. This provides a convenient
method for initial setup of the switch. System parameters are stored in a non-volatile memory.
They need to be set up only during the initial setup or when the system has been reset to the
factory defaults.
The following keys are used to access the menu:
Enter
Backspace
Tab
A screen similar to the following example appears on the Console Port at power up or reset:
