3. Featured Functions
In this chapter, we explain how to access the EDS-P510’s configuration options, perform monitoring, and use
administration functions. There are three ways to access these functions: RS-232 console, Telnet console, and
web browser. The serial console connection method, which requires using a short serial cable to connect the
EDS-P510 to a PC’s COM port, can be used if you do not know the EDS-P510’s IP address. The Telnet console
and web browser connection methods can be used to access the EDS-P510 over an Ethernet LAN, or over the
Internet.
The web console is the most user-friendly way to configure the EDS-P510. In this chapter, we use the web
console interface to introduce the functions. There are only a few differences between the web console, serial
console, and Telnet console.
