Lantronix SLC 8000 Application Examples, Telnet/SSH to a Remote Device, SLC show deviceport port

13: Application Examples

Each SLC advanced console manager has multiple serial ports and two network ports. Each serial port can be connected to the console port of an IT device. Using a network port (in-band) or a modem (out-of-band) for dial-up connection, an administrator can remotely access any of the connected IT devices using Telnet or SSH.

SLC 8000 Advanced Console Manager

This chapter includes three typical scenarios for using the SLC unit. The scenarios assume that the SLC 8000 advanced console manager is connected to the network and has already been assigned an IP address. In the examples, we use the command line interface. You can do the same things using the web page interface except for directly interacting with the SLC unit (direct command).
