User’s Manual of MGSW-MGSD Series
3.3 CLI Mode Management
There are two ways for CLI mode management, one is remote Telnet, and the other is operating from console port. Remote
Telnet is an IP-based protocol, and console port is for user to operate the MGSW-MGSD Series Managed Switch on local only,
however, their operation is the same.
The command line user interface is for performing system administration, such as displaying statistics or changing option
settings. Using this method, you can access the
Managed Switch
remote Telnet interface from personal computer, or
workstation in the same Ethernet environment as long as you know the current IP address of the
Managed Switch
.
