Telnet operates over the IP transport protocol. In this environment, your
management station and any network device you want to manage over the
network must have a valid IP address. Valid IP addresses consist of four
numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods. Each address consists of a
network portion and host portion. For example, the IP address assigned to
this switch, 10.1.0.1, consists of a network portion (10.1.0) and a host
portion (1).
The IP address for this switch is obtained via DHCP by default.

To access the switch through a Telnet session, you must first set the IP
address for the switch, and set the default gateway if you are managing
the switch from a different IP subnet. For example,
>ip setup 192.168.0.10 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.1 1
>
If your corporate network is connected to another network outside your
office or to the Internet, you need to apply for a registered IP address.
However, if you are attached to an isolated network, then you can use any
IP address that matches the network segment to which you are attached.
After you configure the switch with an IP address, you can open a Telnet
session by performing these steps:
From the remote host, enter the Telnet command and the IP address of
1.
the device you want to access.

2.
display the ">" prompt for the administrator.

When finished, exit the session with the "logout" command.
