How to Enable GUI on an Adtran Netvanta Router or Switch


Enabling the GUI interface on your Adtran router can make configuring the switch much more convenient for the end user.  But to enable it there are some commands you need to know.  

First, you need to connect your Adtran router or switch to your computer to edit the router's settings.  To do this, we use a 9 pin straight through serial cable to hook up the router to computer (like the cable shown in the image below).


9 PIN Serial Cable
Make sure your NetVanta router has power, and launch Putty or another terminal emulation program on your computer. Use the following connection settings to reach your Adtran NetVanta router:

Press ENTER to activate the router
