jcterm does have some JRE compatibility issues that may prevent it from loading.
 Select Manage: Terminal. The jcterm java applet is downloaded from the console server to your
browser and the virtual terminal will be displayed.
 Select File -> Open SHELL Session from the jcterm menu to access the command line using SSH.
 To access the console server’s command line, enter its TCP address (e.g. 192.168.254.198) as
hostname and the Username, for example, root@192.168.254.198. Then enter the Password.
 To access the console server's serial ports, append :serial to the username. With the gateway’s
TCP address (for example, 192.168.254.198), the Username (for example, root), enter
root:serial@192.168.254.198. Then enter Password and select the TCP Port address for the
serial port to be accessed. By default 3001 is selected (that is, Port 1). To access Port 4 for
