REMOTE CONNECTION USING TELNET

Telnet is available by default when IP routing is enabled on the CyberSWITCH.

Note: This type connection is not valid for first-time connections to the CyberSWITCH since you need the CyberSWITCH’s IP address for access. However, it is a viable option for routine system management and/or data transfer once initial installation and configuration have been performed.

To access the CyberSWITCH using Telnet, you must have a Telnet client software package. A Telnet client software package is built into the CyberSWITCH. With the CyberSWITCH acting as the Telnet client, simply enter the telnet <ip address> command to Telnet into the target host. Refer to the System Commands chapter for a complete listing of available Telnet commands.

If you are using a PC as a Telnet client, the PC must have a Telnet client software package. From the Telnet client package, you will access the CyberSWITCH by connecting to the CyberSWITCH’s IP address.

LAN access:

To access the CyberSWITCH you must set the device’s IP address to be on the same subnet as the CyberSWITCH. Then place the CyberSWITCH on the LAN and Telnet to the address.

WAN access:

1.Connect the system to the (WAN) ISDN line.

2.From a remote device that supports unnumbered IP connections, dial in as a PPP CHAP device USER1 (USER1 as secret). Provide Telnet with the CyberSWITCH address.

3.From a remote device only supporting numbered IP connections, set up an IP Address 2.2.2. 3 and have it dial as a PPP CHAP device USER2 (USER2 as secret). Provide Telnet with the CyberSWITCH address of 2.2.2.2.
