Before using CLI, you need to use a terminal or PC to connect with the network
device. Power on the network device. After the initialization of hardware and
software, you can use CLI. If the network device is used for the first time, you
can only connect the network device through the serial port (Console), which is
referred to as out-band management. In addition, you can connect and manage
the network device through Telnet virtual terminal by performing corresponding
configuraitons. In either case, you can access the command line interface.
