You can manage the Summit using the following methods:

Access the command-line interface by connecting a terminal (or workstation with 
terminal-emulation software) to the Summit console port.

Access the command-line interface over a TCP/IP network using a Telnet 
connection.

Access the Web interface over a TCP/IP network, using a standard Web browser 
(such as Netscape Navigator™ 3.0 or greater, or Microsoft Internet Explorer™ 3.0 or 
greater).

Use an SNMP Network Manager over a network running the IP protocol.

The switch can support up to seven user sessions concurrently (for example, one 
console port, one Web session, and five Telnet connections).

The command-line interface built into the switch is accessible by way of the 9-pin, 
RS-232 console port located on the rear of the unit. 

For more information on the console port pin-outs, refer to 

Once the connection is established, you will see the system prompt and you may log in.
