Starting a Local Management Session

The AT-FS7016 and AT-FS7024 Smart Switches features a RS-232
Terminal Port. You can access the HyperTerminal interface through the
RS-232 port on the front of the switch.

Note

A switch does not need an IP address to be managed from a local
management session. You can start a session at any time on either
an AT-FS7016 or AT-FS7024 Smart Switch in your network. Running
a local management session does not interfere with the flow of
Ethernet traffic through the unit.
