To access the SmartSwitch Remote Access Module using Telnet, you must have a Telnet client
software package. A Telnet client software package is built into the SmartSwitch Remote Access
Module. With the SmartSwitch Remote Access Module 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 SmartSwitch Remote Access Module. You will then be presented with the “
Enter
Login id:
” prompt. Now enter commands as if directly connected to the SmartSwitch Remote
Access Module.
When finished with the session, enter the
exit
command at the system prompt to end the session
with the SmartSwitch Remote Access Module.
Terminate the Telnet session by typing
logout
. This will ensure that the Telnet session has been
terminated, regardless of the specific Telnet client used.
