5. COMMAND LINE INTERFACE
5.1 Accessing the CLI
When accessing the management interface for the switch over a direct connection to the server’s
console port, or via a Telnet connection, the switch can be managed by entering command keywords
and parameters at the prompt. Using the switch's command-line interface (CLI) is very similar to
entering commands on a UNIX system.
This chapter describes how to use the Command Line Interface (CLI).

Then, the following message asks the login username & password. The factory default password as
