Over the Network
You can access the CLI over a TCP/IP network using Telnet. To run
Telnet, you need a suitable terminal or management station running
a terminal emulator.
You can have multiple command line interface management sessions
at the same time. If a connection is lost inadvertently, the connection
is closed by the unit after about 30 minutes of inactivity.
Telnet
Microsoft Windows 95 comes with a suitable program called 'Telnet'.
To open a Telnet session, you must specify the IP address of the unit
you want to manage. For other types of management stations and
operating systems, refer to the documentation that accompanies
your Telnet terminal emulator for information on how to do this.
The Telnet application ('Telnet.exe') can usually be found in the
Windows directory on your PC. To start a Telnet session:
1 Run the 'Telnet.exe' application. The Telnet application's window
appears.
2 From the Connect menu, select Remote System. The Connect dialog
box appears.
3 Type the IP address of the unit in the Host name field, select 'telnet'
for the Port field, and select 'vt-100' for the TermType field.
4 Click Connect.
