Appendix

The CLI is also accessible through the RS232 serial port of the SFS 7024. Accessing the CLI through the serial port never requires a login and password and defaults to administrator privileges. Providing access through the serial port means that users will always have access to the SFS 7024, even if Telnet and SSH are not functioning.
