E.8.1.1 Telnet User Access
Telnet operation is permissible only when the IP Interface Security Mode has been set to "Low
Level Security". See Section E.2.5.2.3 'Admin | Security' (Account Information) in this
appendix for instructions on setting the security level to allow for Telnet (non-secure) operation of
the CLI.
When connecting via Telnet, the user must have network connectivity to the NP Interface. This
connectivity can be via a local LAN, a remote LAN, or via a satellite link from another modem.
E.8.1.1.1 Telnet Operational Guidelines
Telnet access is available on TCP Port 23. The default user name and password are both
comtech.
The user name and password are required to gain access to system through
the HTTP/HTTPS and CLI interfaces. For security reasons, the "Restore Factory
Defaults" command (see Section E.3.2.2.5 in this appendix) does NOT reset the
user name and password.
The Telnet CLI allows, at most, seven (7) concurrent logins to the Telnet menu via multiple Telnet
sessions.
The CLI user name and password are the same as the NP HTTP/HTTPS
Interface user name and password.
E.8.1.2 SSH (Secure Shell) User Access
SSH access and operation is permissible only when the IP Interface Security Mode has been set to
"High Level Security". See Section E.2.5.2.3 'Admin | Security' (Account Information) in this
appendix for instructions on setting the security level to allow for SSH (secure) operation of the CLI.
At login, note that the CLI user name and password when starting an SSH CLI session are the
same as the NP HTTP/HTTPS Interface user name and password.
See Section 6.6 SSH (Secure Shell) Interface for initial setup and operational examples for using
an SSH terminal emulator application for CLI operations.
