NETGEAR ProSafe 802.11g Wireless Access Point WG302v2 Reference Manual

Using the Secure Telnet Interface

The WG302v2 includes a secure Telnet command line interface (CLI). You can access the CLI from a secure Telnet client over the Ethernet port or over the serial console port.

Note: You must use a secure Telnet client such as PuTTY. Also, when you configure the client, use the SSH1, 3DES option. If you use the Telnet client to connect over the

Ethernet port, use the IP address of the WG302v2 as the host name.

Accessing the CLI by Using the Console Port

1.Using a null-modem cable, connect a VT100/ANSI terminal or a workstation to the port labeled Console.

If you attached a PC, Apple Macintosh, or UNIX workstation, start a secure terminal-emulation program.

2.Configure the terminal-emulation program to use the following settings:

•Baud rate: 9600 bps

•Data bits: 8

•Parity: none

•Stop bit: 1

•Flow control: none

These settings appear below the connector on the back panel.

3.Press ENTER, and a screen similar to the one in Figure 3-3should appear.
