Using the Secure Telnet Interface

The WAG302 includes a secure Telnet command line interface (CLI). You can access the CLI
from a secure Telnet client over the Ethernet port or over the serial console port.
Note: You must use a secure Telnet client such as Absolute Telnet. Also, when you
configure the client, use the SSH1, 3DES option. If you use the Telnet client to
connect over the Ethernet port, use the IP address of the WAG302 as the host name.
To use the CLI from a Console Port:
1. Using the null-modem cable, connect a VT100/ANSI terminal or a workstation to the port
labeled Console.
If you attached a PC, Apple Macintosh, or UNIX workstation, start a secure terminal-
emulation program.
2. Configure the terminal-emulation program to use the following settings:
• Baud rate: 9,600 bps
• Data bits: 8
• Parity: none
• Stop bit: 1
• Flow control: none
These settings appear below the connector on the back panel.
3. Press Return. The screen shown below in

Figure 3-2 should appear.
