4.3 Terminal Interface
The Terminal Interface provides the user with a textual configuration dialog for
configuring the CMR-5940. This method of configuration should be used for initial
configuration of the unit; i.e., configuring the network parameters for the unit but not for
normal operation. The Web (HTTP) Interface is recommended for operational
management.
The Terminal Interface allows the entire unit to be configured and managed, but this
interface can only be used while a serial connection is present between the CMR-5940
and a PC.
The screens shown in this section are displayed via a Terminal connection. The same
menu information is displayed via the Telnet or serial interface with some specific
features only available via this access method – these ‘serial interface only’ features are
noted in this section. Detailed information is provided about the menu features in
Chapter 4.2 Web Interface.
Figure 4-13 shows the hierarchal structure of the Terminal Interface-based menus, and
the sections in this chapter which provide figures of these submenu pages.
