Starting a Telnet Session
When you begin the Telnet session, you will be prompted for a password.
The default password is
password
(which is a Level 0 superuser password).
You can change this password using the
Access Passwords
option, which
is only accessible through the terminal menus. See Access Passwords on page
6-11 for details. The Telnet session will time out and display the Login
prompt after a pre-defined time that is set in the
Session Timeout
option
(see Session Timeout on page 6-7 for details).
For detailed information on the commands available during a Telnet ses-
sion, refer to Chapters 5, 6, and 7 on working with the terminal menu.

panel of the ATLAS

to a VT-100 type terminal. The following Step/Action table provides instruc-
tions for setting up the ATLAS

Microsoft Telnet version 1.0 does not implement full VT-100 emulation.
However, many commercial Telnet clients for Microsoft Windows exist
which fully implement VT-100. In addition, a freeware client which is
recommended for optimum performance is delivered with the
ATLAS
_ 800. See VT-100 Utility on page 12-7 for details.
