Terminal Operations
The Console Menu
Each DSR2035/8035 switch may be configured at the appliance level through the Console menu
interface accessed through the SETUP port on the back of the switch. All terminal commands are
accessed through a terminal or PC running terminal emulation software.
NOTE: This is NOT the recommended method for setting options for the DSR2035/8035 switch. The preferred
method is to make all configuration settings in the DSView Server software. See the DSView Installer/User Guide
for more information.
Network Configuration
To configure network settings using the Console menu:
1. When you power up your DSR2035/8035 switch, the switch initializes for approximately one
minute. After it completes initialization, press any key on the terminal or on the PC running the
terminal emulation software to access the Console menu interface shown in Figure 6.1 on
page 76.
NOTE: The terminal may be connected at any time, even when the switch is already powered.
