Accessing the CLI

You can access the CLI by using a direct console connection or by using a telnet or

SSH connection from a remote management host.

For the initial connection, you must use a direct connection to the console port. You

cannot access the system remotely until the system has an IP address, subnet mask, and

default gateway. You can set the network configuration information manually, or you

can configure the system to accept these settings from a BOOTP or DHCP server on

your network. For more information, see 5.1 “Network Interface Commands” on page

5 - 2.
