After an IP address is assigned to the device, you can access the CLI through a serial console connection to the Ethernet management port or a Telnet or SSH session using the device management IP address.
For more information on a serial console connection, see the relevant SLX-OS Hardware Installation Guide. For information on a session connection, see the Extreme SLX-OS Management Configuration Guide.
The procedure to access the CLI is the same through either the console interface or through a Telnet or SSH session; both access methods bring you to the login prompt. The following example shows the admin role logging into the device:
device login: admin Password:********** device#
Note
Multiple users can open sessions on the device and issue commands. The device supports a maximum of 32 CLI sessions.
