EES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch
Fig 4-7 Managing the switch by Telnet
Step 1: Configure the IP addresses for the switch and start the Telnet function on the switch.
First, the configuration of the host’s IP address should be within the same network segment as
the switch’s VLAN1 interface IP address. Suppose the switch’s VLAN interface IP address is
10.1.128.251/24, then a possible host IP address is 10.1.128.252/24. Run “ping 10.1.128.251” from
the host to verify the result, and check for reasons if ping failed.
The IP address configuration commands for VLAN1 interface ES4710BD are listed below.
Before in-band management, the switch must be configured with an IP address by out-of-band
management (i.e., Console mode), The configuration commands are as follows (All switch
configuration prompts are assumed to be “switch” hereafter if not otherwise specified):
Switch>
Switch>en
Switch#config
Switch(Config)#interface vlan 1
Switch(Config-If-Vlan1)#ip address 10.1.128.251 255.255.255.0
Switch(Config-If-Vlan1)#no shutdown
At the same time, use the command “telnet-server enable” at console method with global mode
to start the function of Telnet server.

Switch#config
Switch(Config)# telnet-server enable
Step 2: Run Telnet Client program.
