Access priority for logging on
Only one user at a time can log on to the Management Card. The priority for access, beginning with the highest priority, is as follows:
•Local access to the command line interface from a computer with a direct serial connection to the Management Card
•Telnet or SSH access to the command line interface from a remote computer
