Logging in to the CLI

By default, the first time you access the CLI you can log in through the console port. At the CLI, you can

configure Telnet or SSH for remote access.

example, HyperTerminal in Windows XP). In addition, the port settings of the terminal emulation

program must be the same as the default settings of the console port in
