CLI
Once the management computer detects connection to the USB-capable device, the Management
Controller awaits input of characters from the host computer via the command-line. To see the command-
line prompt, you must press Enter. The MC provides direct access to the CLI.
Note:Directly cabling to the CLI port is an out-of-band connection, because it communicates outside of
the data paths used to transfer information from a computer or network to the RAID chassis.
Device Driver/Special Operation Mode
Certain operating systems require a device driver or special mode of operation. Product and vendor
identification information required for such setup is provided in Table 71 below.

Microsoft Windows operating systems provide a USB serial port driver. However, the USB driver requires

the Windows environment. Please contact Quantum for instructions about how to download this driver.
