Accessing the CLI
You can access the CLI by using a direct console connection or by using a telnet or
SSH connection from a remote management host.
For the initial connection, you must use a direct connection to the console port. You
cannot access the system remotely until the system has an IP address, subnet mask, and
default gateway. You can set the network configuration information manually, or you
can configure the system to accept these settings from a BOOTP or DHCP server on
your network. For more information, see 5.1 “Network Interface Commands” on page
