Telnet Management Session
Any management workstation on your network that has the Telnet
application protocol can be used to manage an AT-8300 Series stack.
This type of management session is referred to in this guide as a remote
management because you do not have to be in the wiring closet where
the stack is located. You can manage a stack from any workstation on
the network that has the application protocol.
To establish a Telnet management interface with a stack, you must
assign it an IP address. Initially assigning an IP address to a stack is only
possible through a local management session.
Note
For instructions on how to start a Telnet management session, refer
to Starting a Telnet Management Interface on page 38.
A Telnet management session gives you complete access to all of a
stack’s operating parameters. You can perform nearly all the same
functions from a Telnet management session as you can from a local
management session.
