Terminal - Dell OpenManage Network Manager Client Manual

Terminal

This opens a terminal shell connected to the selected device.
A green icon in the lower right corner indicates the device is online, while the IP address of the
device appears in title bar. The IP address of Dell OpenManage Network Manager's server also
appears in the lower left corner, when the connection is active.
The following menus appear for your terminal session:
File— This menu lets you Connect or Disconnect to the device.
Edit—This menu lets you Copy or Paste text within the terminal session. Click and drag to select
text.
Terminal— This menu lets you set Foreground and Background colors, as well as configuring the
Font and Buffer sizes. Reset Terminal restores the defaults.
NOTE:
Terminal is now an applet that requires a Java Runtime Environment be installed and associated to the
browser as a plug-in on the client machine.
You can cut and paste from the Direct Access terminal.
Telnet sessions are synchronous. You cannot interrupt a command in progress with another
command you send, unless you have enabled something that periodically prompts for additional
commands (for example enabling line continuation prompts).
