Instruction Manual

MetaConnect is a Java client program that couples the SSH tunneling protocol with popular access tools such as Telnet, SSH, HTTP, HTTPS, VNC, RDP, to provide point-and-click secure remote management access to all the systems and devices being managed.

MetaConnect can be installed on Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista™ PCs and on most Linux, UNIX and Solaris configurations

PuTTY

Communications packages like PuTTY can be also used to connect to the ECS0016 gateway command line.

PuTTY is a freeware implementation of Telnet and SSH for Win32 and UNIX platforms, that runs as an executable application without needing to be installed onto your system. PuTTY (the Telnet and SSH client itself) can be downloaded at http://www.tucows.com/preview/195286

To use PuTTY for an SSH terminal session from a Windows client, you enter the gateway’s IP address as the ‘Host Name (or IP address)

To access the ECS0016 command line you select ‘SSH’ as the protocol, and use the default IP Port 22

Click ‘Open’ and you will be presented with the ECS0016 login prompt. (You may also receive a ‘Security Alert’ that the host’s key is not cached, you will need to choose ‘yes’ to continue.)

Using the Telnet protocol is similarly simple but you use the default port 23
