Basic GigaVUE H Series Connections and Configuration 101
Completing the Initial GigaVUE H Series Setup
At this point, you have logged in to the GigaVUE-OS command-line interface using the
admin account, configured the Mgmt port’s network properties for Telnet or SSH
access, and have explored the command-line interface structure.
There are a few more steps you should perform to complete the initial configuration
before you get to the fun stuff – setting up network ports, tool ports, and mapping
traffic. These tasks include:
• Switch to the Configure mode.

Keep in mind that the GigaVUE-OS has three different command modes for the CLI –
Standard , Enable , and Configure . The commands described in the following sections
are all only available in Configure mode. Switch to Configure mode as follows:
Command Notes
> enable
You only need to supply enough of each command to positively
identify it among the other available commands. So, in this
example, you could just type
ena and press Enter.
# configure terminal
Similarly, this command can be entered as co t .
(config) #
Notice how the system prompt changes with each command mode.
Command modes offer greater control over the node as you
ascend from
Standard to Enable to Configure .
