Appendix H | Telnet Setup |
Telnet stands for Telecommunications Network, it is a protocol that provides a way for users (or clients) to connect to computers (or servers) on a network, whether in the next building or across the other side of the world.
You can open a Telnet session using other terminal emulation programs like Tera Term Pro (downloadable from the internet), which is a free software for MS- Windows. It supports VT100 emulation, Telnet connection and serial port connection.
Once the Telnet mechanism is decided we can open a session by simply typing the IP address of the iServer, and setting the Port on 2002 for logging into the iServer Configuration page, or 2000 for accessing the serial device connected to the iServer’s serial port.
