Terminal Interface

The Terminal Interface provides the user with a textual configuration dialog for configuring the
CMR-5995. This method of configuration should be used for initial configuration of the unit; i.e.,
configuring the network parameters for the unit but not for normal operation. The Web (HTTP)
Interface is recommended for operational management.
The Terminal Interface allows the entire unit to be configured and managed, but this interface can
only be used while a serial connection is present between the CMR-5995 and a PC. The screens
shown in this section are displayed via a Telnet connection.
The user must authenticate (login) before being able to access the application. After a period of
inactivity, the user's session will time out, and must log in again to resume.
The same menu information is displayed via the serial interface with some specific features only
available via this access method – these 'serial interface only' features are noted in this section.
Detailed information is provided about the menu features in Chapter 4.2 Web Interface.
Figure 4-5 shows the hierarchal structure of the Terminal Interface-based menus and the sections
in this chapter which provide figures of these submenu pages.
