Before it can be used, the internet server has some variables that
need to be properly set. This chapter describes how to change de-
fault IP settings and then how to use Telnet or a web browser to
manipulate the internet server. A description of the minimum
setup required to operate is also provided. A full listing of all
variables on the internet server is provided in Chapter 4. Note
that the variables and their options are the same regardless of
whether you are using Telnet or a web browser although they are
displayed in different formats.
Usage Note: Throughout this user’s guide, we refer to “your
ISP.” An ISP is a company that provides inter-
net services, normally for a fee, and usually via
modems connected over telephone lines.
From the ISP’s point of view, the internet
server is a single user (with a single username
and password). The purpose of the server is
to allow you to get access as a single user for
multiple actual users.
