Hardware

USB-C Port

The USB port is used as a console port providing direct access to CLI (Command Line 

Interface) as well as status, logging and troubleshooting information. In addition, this sport 

can increase the methods by which data can be sent and received from a connected 

computer. The USB port can be set as a Ethernet over USB port or as a console port. 

See
