For IP Networks.
Enter the IP address of the target hub.
This option initiates a Telnet session to another ATI managed hub. This
option is useful when you are managing remote networks.
NOTE
If you are specifying the system by its alias, be sure to enclose the name in
single quotation marks (for example, ‘
name
’).
When the Telnet connection is established, you will see the remote system’s
Main Menu. Note that a thorough discussion of Telnet and remote
connectivity was discussed in Chapter 2 and you are referred to that
information.
Local hub management does not require TCP/IP addresses. If you are NOT
going to have a TCP/IP network then all hubs and devices can be identified by
either a name convention of your choice or by a MAC address which is
assigned and integrated into each hub by the manufacturer).
The switch displays its name at the top of the screen in an Omega session.
This is particularly useful if you have more than one system. You can also use
the name when initiating an Omega session via Telnet from another switch.
