User Interface Configuration Options

The User Interface configuration options are divided into four tables as follows:

HCommunication Port Configuration Options (Table C-7)

HExternal Device Configuration Options (Table C-8)

HTelnet Sessions Configuration Options (Table C-9)

HEthernet Port Configuration Options (Table C-10)

Communication Port Configuration Options

Table C-7. Communication Port Configuration Options (1 of 3)

Port Use: Terminal

Mgmt ASCII Terminal

Specifies how the communication port is used.

Mgmt – Configures the communication port as the link to an SNMP or Telnet system.
