Custom Web pages

These pages can be either modified versions of the existing Web pages, or new Web pages developed in the field.

Web page development can be done with a Web site development tool such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver. Custom Web pages are loadable with the Web server File Manager (see File Management tab earlier in this chapter).

If you want one of the pages that you create and upload to be the default start-up page, name that file “index.html.”

Telnet (port 23)

Telnet, short for Telecommunications Network, provides a way for you to connect to a computer or server (in this case the

IPL M PDP-ES interface card) on a network. Once connected via Telnet, you can send ASCII commands (see the Command/ response table for Simple Instruction Set (SIS) commands earlier in this chapter) to the IPL M PDP-ES.

Accessing and using Telnet

1.From the Windows Start menu, Click Run, then enter “Telnet” and click OK. The Telnet program starts (see figure 4-18).

2.At the command prompt, enter “open” and press Enter.
