6.0 or above for access to the switch management setup.
Terminal Setup
There are three ways to access and setup your switch. They are:

• Web Browser
RS-232 console
To configure the system, connect a serial cable to a COM port on a PC or
notebook computer and to the serial (console) port of the GE-DS-82 Managed
Switch. The console port of the Managed Switch is DCE already, so that you can
connect the console port directly through PC without the need of Null Modem.
