Option	Description
Telnet/SSH Port Configuration
Telnet Port	Identifies the TCP/IP port used for communications by Telnet with the
	Battery Management System. The default is 23.
	You can change the Port setting to the number of any unused port
	between 5000 and 32768 to enhance the protection provided by User
	Name and Password settings. Then, according to the requirements of
	your Telnet client program, you must use either a colon (:) or a space in
	the command line to specify the non-default port number. For example,
	for a port number of 5000 and a Battery Management System IP address
	of 159.215.12.114, your Telnet client would require one or the other of the
	following commands:
	telnet 159.215.12.114:5000
	telnet 159.215.12.114 5000
SSH Port	Identifies the TCP/IP port used for communications by the Secure SHell
	(SSH) protocol with the Battery Management System. The default is 22.
	You can change the Port setting to the number of any unused port
	between 5000 and 32768 to enhance the protection provided by User
	Name and Password settings. See the documentation for your SSH
	client for information on the command line format required to specify a
	non-default port number when starting SSH.
