Overview
In case the network goes down, or the JETPORT 5208 / JETPORT 5216
cannot be accessed with the usual browser based method for some other
reason, the JETPORT 5208 / JETPORT 5216 can be reached via several
additional Out of Band (OOB) methods. These include HyperTerminal, PPP,
Telnet, and SSH. Each of these is described in the sections that follow.
HyperTerminal
HyperTerminal is a program included with Windows. It can be used to
establish either a direct terminal connection, or an indirect (phone in) terminal
connection. Both configurations are discussed below.
Direct HyperTerminal Connection
Setup:
To set up a direct HyperTerminal connection, do the following:
1. Use Ethernet to serial cable to connect one of the JETPORT 5208 /
JETPORT 5216's serial ports to a COM port on a PC.
Note:
1. In the examples that follow we use COM1. If you use a different
COM port, change the settings accordingly.
2. Be sure that the port you specify as the Console Port in the OOBC
dialog box matches the port that you are connecting the PC to.
Change the setting, if necessary.
2. On your PC, run the HyperTerminal program:
