Starting a Telnet session

You can start a Telnet session with the Interface Manager card in one of two ways:

Through the LAN—Use any PC on the LAN, including the management station, to Telnet into
the Interface Manager card using the network IP address. See

Telnetting through the LAN

.

Through the Cascade port—Connect a PC to the Interface Manager card via the cascade port
and Telnet into the Interface Manager card using the cascade IP address. See

Telnetting

through the cascade port

.

Any time you can connect via Telnet, you can connect via SSH. SSH uses the same CLI as the
Telnet and serial interfaces, but over a more secure channel. Different SSH client applications are
available for various operating systems. When connected via SSH, use it in the exact way you
would use Telnet.

Telnetting through the LAN

From any PC on the LAN, including the management station, do the following:
1.

Open a command prompt and enter the following command:

telnet name

where name is either the IP address or hostname of the Interface Manager card.

2.

At the login prompt, use the following default information:

Telnetting through the cascade port

The cascade port of the Interface Manager card has a dedicated IP address that is hardcoded into
the Interface Manager card and is completely separate from the network IP address. The cascade
port provides a backdoor method for accessing the Interface Manager card and making
configuration changes, such as getting or setting the network IP address.
