Remote Login via SSH

You can also use a standard SSH client to access the R-Port options if
you wish to avoid using the Java-based SSH client in the Web interface.
Simply use your SSH client (several freeware packages are available for
download, along with commercial applications) and connect to the IP ad-
dress of the CABCONS1716I using port 22 (default).
Log in to the SSH session as admin using the same password as the
Web interface. At the command prompt type connect x (where x is the
number of the R-Port devices you wish to manage). Alternatively, you can
enter the command connect -l to see a list of active devices.
Operating Notes:
If the power supply to the R-Port modules you have connected be
comes faulty (short, overload) then the R-Port LED on the front panel
of the CABCONS1716I will show red.
Under normal operations, this light should remain green. The R-Port
connector on the rear panel also has an LED that mirrors the status of
the light on the front panel.
Hardware handshaking (CTS/RTS) is required for speeds exceeding
9600 bps. It is enabled by default on the CABCONS1716I, but may
need to be enabled on the other end of the connection. For Unix
systems, the command is:
stty –crtscts < /dev/[serial port]
A maximum of four users may simultaneously login to the same
module. All users may type commands at any time, and all users will

All users have equal access to all channels .
A maximum of 16 R-Port modules may be connected at any
one time.
You can plug-in or unplug any R-Port module at any time.
