Chapter 4
Using the Telnet/SSH/CLI Interface
This chapter describes how to use the Telnet/Secure Shell (SSH)/Command Line Interface (CLI) (Telnet/SSH/
CLI) interface to access the Network Card-MS.
Overview
Telnet is a terminal emulation protocol you can use to access and configure the parameters for the Network
Card-MS. Telnet is not a secure protocol, but when used with SSH, the connection is secure.
l
A MENU interface that groups the configuration parameters in pre-defined menus for easy navigation
l
A CLI that allows direct access to the individual configuration parameters
Telnet access to the Network Card-MS is enabled by default, with SSH security enabled and the MENU
interface selected.
Session Constraints
Up to five sessions with the Network Card-MS may be open at one time. Each open session must have the
same protocol configuration. You cannot open sessions with different protocols.
Table 11 lists possible session protocol configurations.
Available Settings
Most of the configuration parameters available through the Web interface are also available through the Telnet/
SSH/CLI interface. For a detailed explanation of each parameter, default, and possible values, see “Using the
Network Card-MS Web Interface“ on page 19. For a quick reference of default parameters, see Table 3 on page
8.
Depending on the current configuration of the Network Card-MS, some parameters may not be available.
Table 12 lists the type of each parameter or message coded by color:
