Syntax Conventions

“Enter” means for you to type one or more characters. “Select” or “Choose” means for you to use one of the predefined choices.

Command and arrow keys are enclosed in square brackets. [ENTER] means the Enter, or carriage return key; [ESC] means the Escape key and [SPACE BAR] means the Space Bar.

Mouse action sequences are denoted using a comma. For example, “In Windows, click Start, Settings and then Control Panel” means first click the Start button, then point your mouse pointer to Settings and then click Control Panel.

“e.g.,” is a shorthand for “for instance”, and “i.e.,” means “that is” or “in other words”.

The ES-2108 Series Ethernet Switch may be referred to as “the switch” unless otherwise specified in this User’s Guide.
