General FAQs
15.1
Q. How do I telnet to the NetGuardian?
A.
You must use
Port 2002
to connect to the NetGuardian. Configure your Telnet client to connect using TCP/IP
(
not
"Telnet," or any other port options). For connection information, enter the IP address of the NetGuardian
and Port 2002. For example, to connect to the NetGuardian using the standard Windows Telnet client, click
Start, click Run, and type "telnet <NetGuardian IP address> 2002."
Q. How do I connect my NetGuardian to the LAN?
A.
To connect your NetGuardian to your LAN, you need to configure the unit IP address, the subnet mask and the
default gateway. A sample configuration could look like this:
Unit Address:
192.168.1.100
subnet mask:
255.255.255.0
Default Gateway:
192.168.1.1
Save your changes by writing to NVRAM and reboot. Any change to the unit's IP configuration requires a reboot.
Q. When I connect to the NetGuardian through the craft port on the front panel it either doesn't work right
or it doesn't work at all. What's going on?
A.
Make sure your using the right COM port settings. Your COM port settings should read:
Bits per second:
9600 (9600 baud)
Data bits:
8
Parity:
None
Stop bits:
1
Flow control:
None
Important!
Flow control
must
be set to
none
. Flow control normally defaults to hardware in most terminal
programs, and this will not work correctly with the NetGuardian.
Q. The LAN link LED is green on my NetGuardian, but I can't poll it from my T/Mon.
A.
Some routers will not forward packets to an IP address until the MAC address of the destination device has
been registered on the router's Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) table. Enter the IP address of your gateway
and your T/Mon system to the ARP table.
