How to use the commands
The SWR2311P lets you perform command operations in the following two ways.
Type of operation
Method of operation
Description
Operation via console
• Access from a console terminal
• Access from a TELNET client
• Access from a SSH client
Issue commands one by one to
interactively make settings or perform
operations.
Operation via a config file
• File transfer via TFTP
• File transfer via GUI operation
• File copy via SD card
A file containing a set of necessary
commands (called a configuration or
"config" file) is used to specify multiple
settings, or to obtain multiple settings from
the SWR2311P, in a single operation.
This chapter explains how to use each method.
2.1 Operation via console
2.1.1 Access from a console terminal
Use a USB cable or RJ-45/DB-9 console cable (YRC-RJ45) when making settings from a terminal that is connected to the
CONSOLE port of SWR2311P. For the USB cable connected to the mini-USB CONSOLE port, use a USB cable that supports
data communication between a USB Type A connector and a mini-USB Type B (5-pin) connector. Cables for recharging only
cannot be used. If you are using a computer as a console terminal (serial terminal), you'll need a terminal program to control the
computer's serial (COM) port. Set the communication settings of the console terminal as follows.

For settings related to the console terminal, use the
line con
command to move to line mode.
2.1.2 Access from a TELNET client
You can use a TELNET client on a computer to connect to the TELNET server of the SWR2311P and control it. In order to
make settings using TELNET, you must first set up a connection environment (IP network) and then make TELNET server
settings.
The IP address settings of the SWR2311P are as follows.
• The default IPv4 address setting is ip address dhcp for VLAN #1.
• To change the IPv4 address, use the
ip address
command.
The TELNET server settings of the SWR2311P are as follows.
• With the default settings of the TELNET server function, it runs on the default port (TCP port 23) and allows access only
from VLAN #1 (vlan0.1).
• To change the reception port number, use the
telnet-server
command.
• Access to the TELNET server can be controlled in VLAN units, and can be specified by the
telnet-server interface
command.
A virtual communication port by which a TELNET client connects is called a "virtual terminal (VTY: Virtual TYpewriter)
port." The maximum number of simultaneous TELNET client connections depends on the number of VTY ports of the
SWR2311P. The VTY ports of the SWR2311P are as follows.
• With the default VTY port settings, eight VTY ports (ID: 0--7) can be used.
• To check the number of VTY ports, use the
show running-config | include line vty
command.
• To change the number of VTY ports, use the
line vty
command. (maximum 8 (ID: 0--7))
