Configuration Using the Web User Interface
The ES8510-XTE provides in-band and out-band configuration methods:
•
Out-band management means that you configure the ES8510-XTE using the RS-232 console cable and the
Command Line Interface (CLI) to access the ES8510-XTE without attaching an admin PC to the network.
You can use out-band management if you lose the network connection to the ES8510-XTE. The CLI and
Telnet are discussed in
Configuration Using the Command Line Interface (CLI)
•
In-band management means that you connect remotely using the ES8510-XTE IP address through the
network. You can remotely connect with the ES8510-XTE embedded Java applet web user interface or a
Telnet console and the CLI. The ES8510-XTE provides HTTP web user interface (
) and secure
HTTPS web user interface (
) for web management.
