3.1 Introduction
S5100-SI/EI series Ethernet switches support Telnet. You can manage and maintain a
switch remotely by Telnetting to the switch.
To log in to a switch through Telnet, the corresponding configuration is required on both
the switch and the Telnet terminal.
You can also log in to a switch through SSH. SSH is a secure shell added to Telnet.
Refer to the SSH Operation for related information.

route between the switch and the Telnet terminal is reachable.
(Refer to the IP Address Configuration – IP Performance
