5. Other Console Considerations

This chapter explains how to access the IE-WL-AP-BR-CL-ABG for the first time. In addition to HTTP access,

there are four ways to access IE-WL-AP-BR-CL-ABG: serial console, Telnet console, SSH console, and HTTPS

console. The serial console connection method, which requires using a short serial cable to connect the

IE-WL-AP-BR-CL-ABG to a PC’s COM port, can be used if you do not know the IE-WL-AP-BR-CL-ABG’s IP

address. The other consoles can be used to access the IE-WL-AP-BR-CL-ABG over an Ethernet LAN, or over the

Internet.
