Reference Guide for the Model RM356 Modem Router

Connecting Through a Telnet Connection

You can access the built-in Manager interface by a Telnet call from any TCP/IP workstation on the LAN or the remote network. In order to use the Telnet Protocol, you must know the current IP address of the router. If the router has no IP address, you must first use a serial connection or the FirstGear utility to assign an IP address. The router ships with an address of 192.168.0.1.

To make a Telnet connection from the LAN, you must make sure that the router and workstation are connected to the LAN and you must set up your workstation to enable it to reach the IP address of the router by doing one of the following:

Set your workstation to an IP address on the currently programmed subnet of the router.

Add a route to the static routing table of the workstation to indicate that the router can be reached through the local LAN port.

Note: If you change the LAN IP address of the router while connected through Telnet, you lose the Telnet session. You must then open a new Telnet connection to the new IP address and log in again.

When using Telnet, consider the following:

Single administrator

To prevent confusion and discrepancy on the configuration, the router allows only one terminal connection at any time. The router also gives priority to the serial RS-232 connection over Telnet. If you have already connected to the router through Telnet, you will be logged out if another user then connects through the RS-232 cable. You can use a Telnet connection only after the other administrator has disconnected.

System timeout

When you are connected to the router through Telnet, there is a system timeout of 5 minutes (300 seconds). If you are not configuring the device and leave it inactive for this timeout period, then the router automatically disconnects you.
