Operating Your V481 Computer from a Telnet Client
Before operating your V481 computer from a Telnet client, we suggest that you change the
network settings of the computer (see the previous section) so that at least one of the two network
ports are on the same LAN as your development workstation.
Use a cross-over Ethernet cable to connect your development workstation directly to the target
computer, or use a straight-through Ethernet cable to connect the computer to a LAN hub or
switch. Next, use a Telnet client on your development workstation to connect to the Telnet console
utility on the target computer. After establishing a connection, type the login name and password
as requested to logon to the computer.
The default login name and password are both
admin
.
Login: admin
Password: admin
After logging in through the console port or Telnet client, you have several commands available to
operate the computer. Type
HELP
to display all of the commands, or type
HELP [command
name]
to display detailed help for a particular command. Some of these commands, such as
DATE
and
TIME
, are very useful and make it easily to manage the computer’s system time. Other
commands, such as
DIR
and
MKDIR
, are good utilities for file management. For example, to
inspect the file structure of the root directory, type
DIR
\> dir /b
