 Note:
The auxiliary (AUX) port and the Console port of an H3C Ethernet switch are the same

interface if you log in through this port.
S3100 series Ethernet switches support two types of user interfaces: AUX and VTY.
z AUX user interface: A view when you log in through the AUX port. AUX port is a
line device port.
z Virtual type terminal (VTY) user interface: A view when you log in through VTY.
VTY port is a logical terminal line used when you access the device by means of
Telnet or SSH.
