Prestige 1400 WAN Router with Integrated Ethernet Switch
12.3
Telnet Behind NAT
When NAT is enabled and an inside server is specified, telnet connections from the outside will be forwarded to
the inside server. So to configure the Prestige via telnet from the outside, you must first telnet to the inside server,
and then telnet from the server to the Prestige using its inside LAN IP address.
Only one connection can be active at any given time. The console port connection has precedence.
Remote users cannot telnet in when the local administration is logged in.

Telnet Capabilities
12.4.1 Single Administrator
To prevent confusion and discrepancy on the configuration, your Prestige allows only one administrator to log in at
any time. Your Prestige also gives priority to the console port over telnet. If you have already connected to your
Prestige via telnet, you will be logged out if another user logs in to the Prestige via the console port.
12.4.2 System Timeout
There is a system timeout of 5 minutes (300 seconds) for either the console port or telnet. Your Prestige will
automatically log you out if you do nothing in this timeout period, except when it is continuously updating the
status in Menu 24.1.1, 24.1.2 and 24.1.3.
12.5
Remote Management Through NAT
The powerful NAT features allow you to manage multiple switches behind NAT. The switches may not have
Telnet clients, but may be managed using a web browser or SNMP.
