Managing Via Telnet
To make a successful Telnet connection to a switch, the following information is
required:
•
Switch name or IP address
•
Username
•
Password
NOTES: The IP address must be set using the ipAddrSet command, which can be
issued by connecting to the RS-232 serial port on the front panel. See “Setting IP
Address Using the Serial Port” in Chapter 1 for more information.
Consult with the local network system administrator for the IP address that is
assigned to the switch.
The serial port and Telnet connection are mutually exclusive and there can be only one
serial port session active at a time. Telnet takes priority, so the serial port is termi-
nated when a Telnet connection is made. The serial connection is restored after the
Telnet session is completed but re-logging in is required. A password is required to
log in to the serial port session. Password checking is skipped only at initial power on
and remains off until log off is done.
