Navigating CLI Modes

The FTOS prompt changes to indicate the CLI mode. You must move linearly
through the command modes, with the exception of the end command which
takes you directly to EXEC Privilege mode; the exit command moves you up
one command mode level.

Console Access

NOTE: You must have a password configured on a virtual terminal line before you
can Telnet into the system. Therefore, you must use a console connection when
connecting to the system for the first time.

Serial Console

The RJ-45/RS-232 console port is labeled on the Z9000 chassis. It is in the
upper right-hand side, as you face the I/O side of the chassis.
