Establishing a Telnet Connection with the Switch (Outband)
Figure 7.2 M460ML-SPV Supervisor Module Fast Ethernet Console Port
Perform the following steps to establish a Telnet connection to the P460 for configuration:
You need to assign an outband interface IP address using a direct connection to the console serial port before you can establish the Telnet session.
You can configure the Fast Ethernet console port parameters if necessary.
The outband interface should be on a different subnet from the inband interface.
1Connect your station to the Fast Ethernet console port (directly or via the network).
2Verify that you can communicate with the P460 using “ping” to the outband interface IP of the P460. If there is no response using the Ping command, check the IP address and default gateway of both the P460 and the station.
3Start a Telnet session:
—From the Microsoft Windows® taskbar of your PC click Start and then Run or access the command prompt
—Start the Telnet session by typing: telnet <P460_IP_address>
For example: telnet 149.49.35.214
