Accessing the NIDs
The x6010 NIDs can be accessed through either a local serial interface via a USB connection or through
an Ethernet network connection. The network connection can be done via a Telnet session or a Web
graphical user interface (GUI).
Access via Local Serial Interface (USB)
The x6010 NIDs can be connected to a local management station (PC) through a serial interface using a
USB connection. The NID is controlled by entering command line interface (CLI) commands at the local
management station. To use the serial interface (USB) the following is required:
•
Personal computer (PC)
•
USB cable (type A male connector on one end and type B male connector on the other)
•
Terminal emulator program (e.g., HyperTerminal) on the PC
•
