Terminal Operations
The Console Menu
Each DSR switch may be configured at the appliance level through the Console menu interface
accessed through the SETUP port. All terminal commands are accessed through a terminal or PC
running terminal emulation software.
NOTE: The preferred method is to make all configuration settings in the DSView 3 software. See the DSView 3
Installer/User Guide for more information.
Network Configuration
To configure network settings using the Console menu:
1. When you power up your DSR 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.
NOTE: The terminal may be connected at any time, even when the switch is already powered.
