Chapter 2 Using the Management Interfaces
Using the Command-Line Interface
Selecting Pages and Settings
When you type names and settings that appear in brackets you jump to that page
or setting. HyperTerminal jumps to the page or setting as soon as it recognizes a
unique name, so you only need to type the first few characters in the page or
setting name. To jump from the home page to the Setup page, for example, you
only need to type se.
Applying Changes to the Configuration
The CLI’s auto-apply feature is on by default, so changes you make to any page
are applied automatically when you move to another management page. To apply
changes and stay on the current page, type apply and press Enter.
Using a Telnet Session

Step 1 On your computer’s Start menu, select Programs > Accessories > Telnet.
If Telnet is not listed in your Accessories menu, select Start > Run, type Telnet
in the entry field, and press Enter.
