management. If your Prestige is configured for IPX routing but not IP in
menu 1,
telnet
will still be available provided you assign your
Prestige an IP address.
Telnet Capabilities
Single Administrator
To prevent confusion and discrepancy on the configuration, your
Prestige will only allow one terminal connection at any time. Your
Prestige also gives priority to the RS-232 connection over
telnet
. If
you have already connected to your Prestige via
telnet
, you will be
logged out if another user is connecting to your Prestige via the RS-232
cable. Only after the other administrator has been disconnected will you
be able to
telnet
to your Prestige again.
System Timeout
When you are connected to your Prestige via
telnet
, there is a
system timeout of 5 minutes (300 seconds). If you are not configuring
the device and leave it inactive for this timeout period, then your
Prestige will be disconnected automatically.
