82.Access via Telnet

Connect via a standard Telnet client using IP Extender’s Telnet server. Use it for passthrough access to a device connected to serial port 1. Connect any serial device, which offers terminal access via its serial port and access it using the Telnet interface. Set the serial settings - see page 42 - according to the requirements of the device.

Connect to IP Extender in the usual way required by the Telnet client, e.g. in a UNIX shell: telnet 192.168.0.220 – (The IP address has been replaced by the one that is actually assigned to IP Extender).

Type a username and password when prompted. These are identical to those of the Web interface. The user management of the Telnet interface is controlled just like the Web interface.

Once logged in, the command line appears to type management commands.

The interface supports both the command line and terminal modes. The command line mode is used to control or display some parameters. In terminal mode the passthrough access to serial port 1 is activated (if the serial settings were made accordingly). All inputs are redirected to the device on serial port 1 and the answers appear on the Telnet interface.

83.Telnet server commands
