CHAPTER 23
Introducing the SMT
This chapter explains how to access the System Management Terminal and gives an overview
of its menus.
23.1 Introduction to the SMT
The LAN-Cell’s SMT (System Management Terminal) is a menu-driven interface that you
can access from a terminal emulator through the console port or over a telnet/SSH connection.
This chapter shows you how to access the SMT (System Management Terminal) menus via
console port, how to navigate the SMT and how to configure SMT menus.
23.2 Accessing the SMT via the Console Port
Make sure you have the physical connection properly set up as described in the Quick Start
Guide.
When configuring using the console port, you need a computer equipped with
communications software configured to the following parameters:
• VT100 terminal emulation.
• 9600 Baud.
• No parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, flow control set to none.
23.2.1 Initial Screen
When you turn on your LAN-Cell, it performs several internal tests as well as line
initialization.
After the tests, the LAN-Cell asks you to press [ENTER] to continue, as shown next.
