DI-1162 Remote Access Router
Using Telnet 129
Using Telnet
The DI-1162 router can be configured and managed using telnet.
Telnet accesses the same built-in configuration program as the RS-232
Diagnostic port console connection. As such, all settings that can be
adjusted through the console can also be configured using Telnet.
Telnet Configuration
In order to use telnet, the DI-1162 router must first be configured using
a console connected to the RS-232 Diagnostic port. Depending on the
placement of the management station using telnet, the initial
configuration requirements for the router are as follows:
Using Telnet via LAN
Preparing the router for management by telnet over the LAN only
requires enabling the LAN port, enabling telnet, and assigning the LAN
port an IP address. To do this:
1. Connect a console to the RS-232 Diagnostic port on the front
panel of the router and run a terminal emulation program (for more
information, see Connecting the Console to the Router and Setting
Up the Console sections of this manual).
2. Enable the LAN port in the Interface Configuration
sub-menu.
3. Assign an IP address to the LAN port in the Network
Configuration sub-menu.
4. Enable Telnet in the Advanced Functions submenu.
5. Connect the router to the LAN.
