Chapter 4: Using the Console Interface for Configuration
Overview
The Switch features a menu-driven console interface for basic configuration of the Switch and management of
your network. The Switch can be configured using CLI through the console interface or through a telnet
connection. This chapter describes console interface configuration. Configuration can also be performed through
the web utility, which is covered in the next chapter.
Configuring the HyperTerminal Application
Before you use the console interface, you will need to configure the HyperTerminal application on your PC.
1. Click the Start button. Select Programs and choose Accessories. Select Communications. Select
HyperTerminal from the options listed in this menu.

connection is SRW2048. Select an icon for the application. Then, click the OK button.
3. On the Connect To screen, select a port to communicate with the Switch: COM1, COM2, or TCP/IP.
