Other Console Considerations
This chapter explains how to access the AWK-3131A-M12-RCC for the first time. In addition to HTTP access,
there are four ways to access AWK-3131A-M12-RCC: serial console, Telnet console, SSH console, and HTTPS
console. The serial console connection method, which requires using a short serial cable to connect the
AWK-3131A-M12-RCC to a PC’s COM port, can be used if you do not know the AWK-3131A-M12-RCC’s IP
address. The other consoles can be used to access the AWK-3131A-M12-RCC over an Ethernet LAN, or over the
Internet.
The following topics are covered in this chapter:
RS-232 Console Configuration (115200, None, 8, 1, VT100)
Configuring Through Telnet and SSH Consoles
Configuring HTTPS/SSL Secure Access Through a Web Browser
