Set Up Telnet Connection
A Telnet connection allows you to access VTrak’s CLU over the network. This
allows RAID management over a greater distance from the VTrak itself.
This procedure is required for a Host PC that does not have an available RS-232
serial port.
The CLU screen looks and works exactly the same over a Telnet connection as it
does over a serial connection.
