ESCRIPTION
The DuraNET 20-11 management interfaces provide the network administrator with a set of
comprehensive management functions. The network administrator has a choice of two easy-to-use
management interfaces:
Serial CLI (command line interface)
Manages all switch features, including CLI enhancements.
Must be used to change the switch IP address from the factory default.
Can be used even if there is no network connectivity.
Provides brief help on syntax for each command.
Web GUI (graphical user interface)
Manages all switch features except the switch IP address and CLI enhancements.
Requires network connectivity.
Provides extensive help on functions and parameters.
For centrally managed networks, the switch also supports SNMP Management (not described in this
manual).
This chapter explains the switch configuration files that store switch parameters, and then provides step-
by-step quick starts for each of the interfaces. The CLI is described in detail in Appendix A. The
Software User’s Manual for the switch describes both interfaces in detail, and is available for download
from the Parvus site.
Note: If the Software User's Manual is not available, use the GUI's extensive help system.
