< 1.9 > Command Line Interface ( CLI ) Access
Command Line Interface ( CLI ) allows you access the IP dongle via Telnet or Secure Shell ( SSH )
to con
fi
gure the system settings and login settings.
By default, CLI access via Telnet and SSH are both enabled whereas Telnet can be disabled.
Telnet provides the basic security of authentication by user name and password, but not the high-
security bene
fi
ts of encryption.
If you want high security access, you can use SSH for access to the command line interface. SSH
encrypts user name, password and transmitted data.
If you use SSH to access the command line interface, DISABLE Telnet.
CLI and IP dongle WEBUI shares the same login name & password ( default login name & pass-
word are “ 00000000 “ )

i.
