Only one user can log into the remote console or serial console at a time. If the serial console is established
while a remote console is established, current remote console will be halted and no more remote console will be
established until serial console is finished.
To access the remote console of the device server, do the following:
1. Run a telnet program or a program that supports telnet functions such as TeraTerm-Pro or HyperTermi-
nal. The target IP address and the port number should be those of the device server. If required, specify the
port number as 23. Type the following command in the command line interface of your computer.
telnet 192.168.1.254
Or run a Telnet program with the parameters shown in
figure 5

the user name and password are both
admin
.
3. If the user logged into the device server successfully, the same command prompt screen as the one of serial
console will be displayed. The user can set, get, save configuration parameters and exit console, reboot the
device as like the serial console.
