13: Application Examples
Each SLC advanced console manager has multiple serial ports and two network ports. Each serial
port can be connected to the console port of an IT device. Using a network port (in-band) or a
modem (out-of-band) for dial-up connection, an administrator can remotely access any of the
connected IT devices using Telnet or SSH.
This chapter includes three typical scenarios for using the SLC unit. The scenarios assume that
the SLC 8000 advanced console manager is connected to the network and has already been
assigned an IP address. In the examples, we use the command line interface. You can do the
same things using the web page interface except for directly interacting with the SLC unit (direct
command).
Telnet/SSH to a Remote Device
The following figure shows a Sun server connected to port 2 of the SLC 8000 advanced console
manager.
