Configuration Using the Command Line Interface
(CLI)
Overview
The ES9528 provides in-band and out-band configuration methods:
• Out-band management means that you configure the ES9528 using the RS-232 console cable and the
Command Line Interface (CLI) to access the ES9528 without attaching an admin PC to the network. You
can use out-band management if you lose the network connection to the ES9528.
• In-band management means that you connect remotely using the ES9528 IP address through the
network. You can remotely connect with the ES9528 embedded Java applet web user interface or a Telnet
console and the CLI.
If you are planning on using in-band management, you need to program the ES9528 IP address to meet your
network requirements. The easiest way to configure the IP address is using a Windows system and PortVision
DX, which is discussed in
Configuring the Network Settings on Page 17.
If you want to use the web user interface for configuration, see Configuration Using the Web User Interface on
Page 29.
Use the following procedures to access the ES9528 using the CLI:
• Using the Serial Console
• Using a Telnet/SSH Console
