Connections
The system provides you with multiple ways to access the Management 
Console. You can connect to the console by either connecting a terminal or a 
PC to the system’s serial (craft) connector or by Telneting into the system 
Management Console remotely. 
For the initial configuration you can connect to the system through the craft 
port. Alternatively, you can connect to the system through telnet if you have 
the DHCP service in your network. By default, DHCP is enabled on your 
system, after your intital configuration you can disble the DHCP service.
