Introduction

Thank you for your interest in the Lantronix SLC 8000 and for trying out the SLC 8000 virtual demo. Here

a few tips to help make the most out of your experience.

The SLC 8000 virtual demo starts off with the unit in a factory default state. Because you may want to

try connecting to a console, there are few settings you may want to configure right away.

Device Ports 1-4 on this demo are connected to simulated serial console ports to allow you to

experience a connection to a remotely managed device. The following steps will allow you to open a

web based SSH session to those console ports.

Additional suggestions will allow you to then look at a log of your session.

NOTE: The demo SLC has a self-signed SSL certificate. At any time when you are opening an SSL based

connection, it is not unexpected to get a security warning. Allow the session to proceed in those cases.

IMPORTANT: The Web SSH client on the SLC requires that the Java plug-in be installed on your browser.

Go to www.java.com for more information on installing Java.
