Telnet Session (Remote Access)
You may access the repeater using a LAN connection and a terminal emulation program for TCP/IP. As with the serial
connection, many terminal emulation programs will work, if properly configured.
In the following section, Tera Term is used to establish the Telnet session. The network configuration of the computer
and the repeater that is being controlled must be set up with the same subnet and subnet mask to establish a link.
In other words, the IP addresses of both the computer and the repeater must use the same group of IP address
number sets.
For example, the repeater ships with a default IP address of 192.168.1.100 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, as
shown in Figure 4-11. To connect, the computer used for the link would normally need an IP address of, for example,
192.168.1.2 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, the same subnet mask as the repeater.
In this example, the last digit of the IP address may be any number except 1,100 and 255. Configuring your PC is
straight forward, but it varies according to the operating system used. If you require assistance, contact your IT
department or you may review the 4.4 Additional Tips section.
