Starting and Ending a CLI Session

Open a telnet connection from a workstation on your network.

You initiate a telnet connection by issuing the following command from an IP host that sup-
por ts telnet, for example, a personal computer running a telnet application such as NCSA
Telnet.

telnet <ip_address>

You must know the IP address of the Netopia Gateway before you can make a telnet con-
nection to it. By default, your Netopia Gateway uses 192.168.1.254 as the IP address for
its LAN inter face. You can use a Web browser to configure the Netopia Gateway IP address.

Logging In

The command line inter face log-in process emulates the log-in process for a UNIX host. To
logon, enter the username (either admin or user), and your password.

Entering the administrator password lets you display and update all Netopia Gateway
settings.

Entering a user password lets you display (but not update) Netopia Gateway settings.

When you have logged in successfully, the command line inter face lists the username and
the security level associated with the password you entered in the diagnostic log.

Ending a CLI Session

You end a command line inter face session by typing

quit

from the SHELL node of the

command line inter face hierarchy.
