Command Line Interface
This chapter describes how to use console interface to configure the switch. The switch
provides RS232 connectors to connect to a PC. Use a terminal emulator on the PC,
such as HyperTerminal or command line interpreter, to configure the switch. The
terminal emulator should be configured with a baud rate of 38400, 8 bit data, no parity, 1
stop bit, and no flow control.
In CLI mode, typing “?” will display all available command help messages. All the CLI
commands are case sensitive.
