Terminal Connection

To use the CLI, connect a terminal directly to the serial port of the device running CNA, or use the telnet or ssh protocol to log in from a remote workstation.

If you connect your terminal to the serial port on the Management Processor module, the CLI can be used to execute commands on any of CNA modules.

If you connect your terminal to the serial port on any module other than the Management Processor, the CLI will operate in local mode only and commands will apply only to that module. The number of commands that are available to you in local CLI mode are severely reduced from the number of commands that can be executed in system-wide mode.
