7 User Interfaces This section describes the three user interfaces (UIs) that can be used to configure, manage, and monitor the VLS over the web, remotely over the LAN, or through a serial connection. It also provides instructions on how to open and close a connection to the VLS for each type of user interface. User Interface Requirements VLS user interfaces lists the VLS user interfaces and their requirements. Of the three user interfaces, Command View VLS should be used in most circumstances.
