This chapter explains how to access EDS-726’s various configuration, monitoring, and administration functions. There are three ways to access these functions: RS-232 console, Telnet console, and web browser. The serial console connection method, which requires using a short serial cable to connect EDS-726 to a PC’s COM port, can be used if you do not know EDS-726’s IP address. The Telnet console and web browser connection methods can be used to access EDS-726 over an Ethernet LAN, or over the Internet.

The Web Console is the most user-friendly way to configure EDS-726. In this chapter, we use the Web Console interface to introduce the functions. There are only a few differences between the Web Console, Serial Console, and Telnet Console.
