508 CyberSWITCH
U SAGE I NSTRUCTIONS
To access the CyberSWITCH using Telnet, you must have a Telnet client software package. A
Telnet client software package is built into the CyberSWITCH. With the CyberSWITCH acting as
the Telnet client, simply enter the
telnet <ip address> command to Telnet into the target
host. Refer to the System Commands chapter for a complete listing of available Telnet commands .
If you are using a PC or a workstation as a Telnet client, it must have a Telnet client software
package. From the Telnet client package, issue the command that will allow you to connect to the
IP address of the CyberSWITCH. You will then be presented with the “
Enter Login id: ”
prompt. Now enter commands as if directly connected to the CyberSWITCH.
When finished with the session, enter the exit command at the system prompt to end the session
with the CyberSWITCH.
Terminate the Telnet session by typing logout . This will ensure that the Telnet session has been
terminated, regardless of the specific Telnet client used.
Notes: If you need to quit then restart the CyberSWITCH for some reason (for example, to have
CFGEDIT changes take effect) issue the restart command. Then reestablish your Telnet
session.
If you lose your Telnet connection within 10 seconds of entering the restart command,
the command will not be executed.
