Accessing the Switch Through the CLI

The switch can be managed over a direct connection to the console port or through a Telnet connection.

If you are managing a stack, ensure the serial interface cable is attached to the Master switch of the stack.

Using the CLI is similar to entering commands on a Linux system. If access is through a Telnet

connection, ensure the device has an IP address defined and that the workstation used to access the

device is connected to the device prior to using CLI commands.
For information about configuring an initial IP Address, see "Configuration Overview."
