Command Line Interface Access
Users can access the switch's command line interface through the console (only for switch
with console port), Telnet or SSH connection, and manage the switch with the command
lines.
Console connection requires the host PC connecting to the switch’s console port directly,
while Telnet and SSH connection support both local and remote access.
The following table shows the typical applications used in the CLI access.
