Chapter 2 - Using The Console CLI
The AT-9724TS supports a console management interface that allows the user to connect to the Switch’s management agent via a serial port and a terminal or a
computer running a terminal emulation program.The console can also be used over the network using the TCP/IP Telnet protocol.The console program can be
used to configure the Switch to use an SNMP-based network management software over the network.
This chapter describes how to use the console interface to access the Switch, change its settings, and monitor its operation.
Note: Switch configuration settings are saved to non-volatile RAM using the save command.The current configuration will then be retained in the
Switch’s NV-RAM, and reloaded when the Switch is rebooted. If the Switch is rebooted without using the save command, the last configuration saved
to NV-RAM will be loaded.
2 -1 Connecting to the Switch
The console interface is used by connecting the Switch to a VT100-compatible terminal or a computer running an ordinary terminal emulator program (e.g., the
HyperTerminal program included with the Windows operating system) using an RS-232C serial cable.Your terminal parameters will need to be set to:
• VT-100 compatible
• 115200 baud
• 8 data bits
• No parity
• 1 stop bit
• No flow control
You can also access the same functions over a Telnet interface. Once you have set an IP address for your Switch, you can use a Telnet program (in VT-100
compatible terminal mode) to access and control the Switch.All of the screens are identical, whether accessed from the console port or from a Telnet interface.
After the Switch reboots and you have logged in, the console looks like this:
