How to Use the Console Interface

The Console Interface consists of a hierarchical series of

menu screens and settings screens. Each menu displays

a list of options. Selecting an option brings up a settings

screen where you can configure the relevant settings.
To select a menu option, either press the number of the

option in the list (for example, press  to select Help from

the Main Menu), or use the arrow keys to move up or down

the list until the option is highlighted, then press Enter.
The lower portion of each settings screen lists the actions

and navigation keys. The actions (Edit, Save, Quit) allow

you to make changes to the settings. The navigation keys

(Arrow Keys, Tab, Backspace, Space, Esc) allow you to

highlight and select different items within the screen.
To change a setting, highlight Edit, then press Enter. Use

the arrow keys to highlight the setting to be changed,

then enter its new value (or press Space to toggle through

the list of values). To save your changes and remain in the

settings screen, highlight Save, then press Enter. To return

to the previous screen, highlight Quit, then press Enter.

To cancel all changes and return to the previous screen,

press Esc, then select Quit.

Login

The console interface starts by displaying the Login screen.

The first time you open the console interface, use the

default username admin and leave the password blank,

then press the Enter key. You can set a password later

from the User and Password Settings screen.

Console Login Screen

If you are using HyperTerminal, enter the username and

password at the prompts. Then press Enter to log in.
If you are using telnet, use the arrow keys to select Edit

and press Enter. Enter the username and password in the

respective fields. Then press Esc to return to the Login

screen. Use the arrow keys to select Execute and press

Enter to complete the login process.
