The Falcon also has a CLI, or Command Line Interface. This interface has no graphical content
and is all command line (text) based and is for advanced users who have knowledge of
command line functions. This type of connection requires a Telnet or SSH client. There are
several telnet and SSH clients available from different software companies. Microsoft Windows
