A Console port or telnet connection provides access to configuration menus
that provide options not available through the LCD menus. Depending on
your immediate configuration requirements, you may not need to set up a PC
immediately. Use the Console port or a telnet session when you:
•
configure the Campus-REX2 as a router (only some bridging and routing
configuration is available using the LCD)
•
want to change the HDSL transmission rate and do not want to use the
LCD menus
•
will set additional configuration options at this time, such as system or
REX2
•
want to view performance statistics for the HDSL and 10/100Base-T
interfaces
If you want to set up a PC at this time, refer to “Setting Up Access to the
Campus Unit” on page 8 .
