Terminal Operations

The Console Menu

Each DSR switch may be configured at the appliance level through the Console menu interface accessed through the SETUP port on the back of the switch. All terminal commands are accessed through a terminal or PC running terminal emulation software.

NOTE: This is NOT the recommended method for setting options for the DSR switch. The preferred method is to make all configuration settings in the DSView Server software. See the DSView Installer/User Guide for

more information.

Network ConfigurationTo configure network settings using the Console menu:

1.When you power up your DSR switch, the switch initializes for approximately one minute. After it completes initialization, press any key on the terminal or on the PC running the terminal emulation software to access the Console menu interface. Actually, the terminal may be connected at any time, even when the switch is already powered.
