Chapter 4 User Interface Configuration
4.1 User Interface Overview
User interface configuration is another way provided by the Ethernet switch to
configure and manage the port data.
S5000 Series Ethernet Switches support the following configuration methods:
z Local configuration via the Console port
z Local and remote configuration through Telnet or SSH on Ethernet port
z Remote configuration through dial with modem via the Console port.
According to the above-mentioned configuration methods, there are two types of user
interfaces:
z AUX user interface
AUX user interface is used to log in the Ethernet switch via the Console port. An
Ethernet switch can only have one AUX user interface.
z VTY user interface
VTY user interface is used to telnet the Ethernet switch. An Ethernet switch can have
up to five VTY user interface.
Note:
For Quidway series Ethernet Switches, AUX port and Console port are the same one. There is only the
type of AUX user interface.
User interface is numbered in the following two ways: absolute number and relative
number.
1) Absolute number, following the rules below.
z AUX user interface is numbered as the first interface designated as user interface
0.
z VTY is numbered after AUX user interface. The absolute number of the first VTY is
incremented by 1 than the AUX user interface number.
2) Relative number, represented by “+ number” assigned to each type of user
interface. It follows the rules below:
z Number of AUX user interface: AUX 0.
