The control module has the following external controls. Where appropriate, this guide describes
how to use the controls.

management terminal. Use this port to establish a direct CLI connection to the X-Pedition. The
default baud rate is 9600.
• 10/100BASE-TX out-of-band Ethernet management port for network management. The port is
configured as a Media Data Interface (MDI). Use this port to establish a management
connection to the X-Pedition over a local or bridged Ethernet segment.
