Configuring the Unit
The NetVanta may be initially accessed and managed either via a console session or
through a Telnet session. See step 1a for console session instructions. Initiating a Tel-
net session requires using a hub and two Ethernet cables (one for the PC and one for
the unit). The default Ethernet IP address is 10.10.10.1. Refer to step 10 to change Tel-
net session settings.
