For users to connect the LS100W to a Wireless LAN access point in their environment, they must first
set the corresponding information on the LS100W, such as the SSID of the Wireless LAN access point.
Please refer to the Wireless LAN Settings section in Chapter 3 for the various parameters needing to
be set for Wireless LAN connection.

2.3. Accessing Console Port
There are two ways to access console port of the LS100W depending on whether the user is located
at a local site or a remote site.
- Serial console:
Local users can connect directly to the serial console port of the LS100W using serial
console/data cable (null-modem cable). The serial port of the LS100W is used as the console port
as well as the data port. To use the serial port as the console port, slide Data/Console switch to
the Console side.
- Remote console:
Remote users can make a telnet connection to the remote console port (port 23) of the LS100W
via TCP/IP network.
Both methods require the user to log into the LS100W in order to continue.
