Attaching a Console 55

Attaching a Console	You must attach a console to the bridge/router for initial software
	configuration. For information about attaching a PC, terminal, or
	modem, see the hardware installation guide for the bridge/router.
	After you have configured the software, you can access the user interface
	using one of the following methods:
	■ Telnet to the bridge/router from a device (for example, a workstation)
	on the same extended network or internetwork.
	The software supports Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User
	Datagram Protocol (UDP). These protocols allow you to Telnet to the
	bridge/router using an Internet Protocol (IP) address. For more
	information about using Telnet on a workstation, see the manual that
	came with your Telnet application.
	■ Use Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to view and
	configure a subset of the parameters from a remote host. For
	information on preparing the bridge/router to run SNMP, see Using
	Enterprise OS Software.
Logging on to	When your bridge/router starts up, it takes a few minutes to complete the
the System	initialization process. While the bridge/router is initializing, several
	messages appear on your terminal. The bridge/router has finished
