Telnet options

To use Telnet options, select the Telnet tab, then the individual server’s Properties dialog box, then mark the Use Default checkbox. You may designate the built-in Serial Console Viewer as the Telnet client or you may specify another Telnet application. When you specify the built-in application, you may choose to open the window before login to troubleshoot login scripts.

When you indicate a user-specified Telnet application, you may include its command line arguments. A selection of macros is available for placement in the command line; this may be useful for automatic replacement of variables such as IP address, port number, user name and password. For Telnet commands that do not provide their own GUI, such as those for computers running Windows, Linux and Unix operating systems, you can launch the Telnet application from within an OS command window.

To change Telnet options:

1.Select Tools - Options from the Network Access Software menu. The Options dialog box appears.

2.Click the Telnet tab.

When enabled, the Serial Console Viewer Telnet window will open before any login attempt is made to the server. This feature is useful when debugging a login script, and is usually disabled otherwise.
