Appendix B

Telnet

B.1 General

Telnet, which stands for Telecommunications Network, is a protocol that gives you the ability to connect to a remote machine, by giving commands and instructions interactively to that machine, thus creating an interactive connection. In such a case, the local system becomes transparent to the user, simulating a direct connection to the remote computer. The commands typed by the user are transmitted directly to the remote machine and the response from the remote machine is displayed on the user’s monitor screen. It is possible to manage the IPmux-1/1E inband via remote ASCII Terminal using the Telnet IP protocol.

B.2 Using Telnet to Manage the IPmux-1/1E

Starting a Telnet Session

IPmux-1/1E is normally controlled by an ASCII terminal emulation application running on an OS. To control IPmux-1/1E using Telnet, you must first open a Telnet application on a local PC.

See Figure B-1for an example of a Telnet logon dialog box. The Telnet application present on the user’s computer may vary in appearance, but will have similar fields.

To open a Telnet application:

1.In the Host Name field, type the IP number of the IPmux-1/1E.

2.In the Port field, choose the Telnet option.

3.In the TermType field, choose the ANSI option.

4.Click Connect.

5.When prompted, type a valid username and password. The Telnet session is now active.
