Type of Console Connections
The iSP supports two types of console connections: i.e. local console connection via serial port
and LAN console connection via TCP port 5001.
Either type of connection provides completely identical user interface, except that all LAN
configuration such as IP address setting can only be done from the local console.
For the details of serial port and LAN configuration, refer to the “SG Command Reference.”
