Chapter 4. Using the Terminal Interface
This chapter describes the 8275-416 terminal interface. To use the terminal
interface it would be helpful to have skills and experience in using Ethernet
networking products and to be familiar with networking concepts such as IP device
management, bridging, switching, and collecting/evaluating trap and monitoring data
The terminal interface panels are automatically refreshed every few seconds to
provide you with current information.
Note: The panels shown in this chapter are intended to be representative and
should not be assumed to be entirely accurate because they are subject to
change before shipment of the product.
Login Panel
The Login panel is the first panel displayed when initializing the terminal interface.
Figure 11 shows the Login panel; you need an approved user name and password
to log in.
User Name Can be up to 8 alphanumeric characters in length. The value is not
case sensitive. The default is admin for a read/write user, and
guest is the default for a read only user.
Password Can be up to 8 alphanumeric characters in length. The value is not
case sensitive. The default is all blanks (blanks indicate no
password).
The terminal interface provides a way to logout. Either use the LOGOUT command
on the Main Menu or from the Main Menu, select System Utilities Menu, then
select Logout. When you have finished using the terminal interface, ensure you
have saved all configuration changes before logging out.
