c) Via Network: The IPS-15 includes a default IP address

(192.168.168.168), which allows you to contact the unit

from any network node on the same subnet. When the IPS

is installed in a working network environment, it is

recommended that you redefine the IP Address, Subnet

Mask, and Gateway Address as described in Section 5.3.3.

i.

Telnet to the IPS-15's IP address. For example, if the

IP address is "192.168.168.168", then on a UNIX

system, the Telnet command would be:
$ telnet 192.168.168.168 [Enter]

ii.

Note that if the Telnet connection is refused, this may

mean that either the IP Security feature has denied the

connection, or the unit is operating on a 100BaseT

network that does not autosense for 10BaseT devices

(see Section 4.4.)

2. Password: If the System Password has been defined, the unit

will display the Password Prompt. Key in either the System

Password or User Password, and press [Enter]. If the System

Password has not been defined, the prompt will not be

displayed when the unit is accessed via the Text Interface.

Note that the Password feature is case sensitive.

3. If a valid System Password or User Password is entered, the

IPS will display the Plug Status Screen as shown in

Figure 5.2, followed by the IPS> Command Prompt.
