Login to Bridge/Router and Enter the Required

Configuration

At the login screen type a 1 and the default password to enter the menu system of the

IOLINK Router. The default password is “BRIDGE” (case sensitive) and should be

changed if security is desired.

With the options of the built-in menu system, the IOLINK router may be configured to

operate within your environment.

Refer to the PPP Menus Manual file for your operating software on the accompanying CD-

ROM for a complete description of all the Menu Options.

The menu system of the IOLINK router may also be used to view system statistics.

Note: Bridge/Router database changes and statistics viewing may be done remotely by establishing Telnet

connections to a partner bridge/router across the WAN. This is accomplished by selecting the “Telnet”

option.

Specify the name or IP address of the router you wish to connect to for

configuration purposes or viewing of statistics.

Noting the Device name at the top left of each Menu may identify the

router being controlled.

If there is no data transmitted or received for a period of 5 minutes, the

Telnet session will be disconnected.

To disconnect from the router being controlled, enter Control-C ( ^C ).

Telnet security considerations: Telnet may be disabled to prevent remote access
control of the router. If Telenet access is enabled, the device password should be
changed to some value other than the default to prevent unauthorized access.
