NOTE:

If you want to run diagnostics with a telnet session, contact Technical

Support for the Prom user name and password (see the “Regulatory and
Safety Statements” section in the Chapter Preface).

Use the following procedure to use an Ethernet connection:

1. Telnet to the UltraNet Edge 3000 via the Ethernet maintenance

interface.

Once you are connected to the UltraNet Edge 3000, the tm.0x10>
prompt will be displayed.

2. From the prompt, type abort and press the Enter key.

The UltraNet Edge 3000 will start to reboot and the telnet
connection will disconnect.

3. Quickly disconnect your telnet session if it didn’t disconnect

automatically.

4. Re-establish the telnet connection immediately. If the telnet

connection is not made immediately, the auto-boot sequence will
start and you will no longer be in the prom mode.

If the auto-boot sequence is not interrupted, you will see the
tm.0x10>

prompt.

5. Enter the prom user name and password when prompted.
