RouteFinder MTASR1-100 User Guide

Remote Management

This section describes typical client applications that can be used to configure the RouteFinder remotely. It is important to note that although any subsequent changes to configuration can be made using these applications, the initial setup and configuration of the RouteFinder must be done on the local PC, using the RouteFinder software provided with your unit.

Although establishing access to the RouteFinder varies between applications, the configuration functions mirror those of the RouteFinder software. For more information on RouteFinder software, refer to Chapter 4 - RouteFinder Software.

Telnet

A typical Telnet client application is described in this section. The RouteFinder has a built-in Telnet Server that enables Telnet client PCs to access the RouteFinder. A typical Telnet client is allowed to configure the RouteFinder and WAN device. A typical TCP/IP program group is shown below with a Tcpman icon and a Telnet icon.

The TCP/IP stack has to be loaded before the Telnet client, a Windows application, can run. Double- Click the Telnet icon and a blank Telnet screen is displayed. Click the Connect menu; if the desired IP Address is listed in the drop-down menu, select it. Otherwise, select Remote System and when the Connect dialog box opens, enter the desired IP Address in the Host Name field and Click the Connect button.

When you enter a valid Host Name (IP Address) and click the Connect button, you are immediately connected to the target RouteFinder and the Router Management Menu screen is displayed.
