To connect to a device through Telnet, use a computer running Telnet software. Before a Telnet
session can be established, the device must have an IP address. The device can only be assigned an
IP address manually during the device configuration process.
Note:
To use the management port, the port must be manually configured with a unique IP
address and Telnet access must be enabled (
Establishing an SSH Connection
Although a remote network administrator can manage the configuration of an Alteon device through
Telnet, this method does not provide a secure connection. The SSH (Secure Shell) protocol enables
secure remote login and communication not provided by Telnet. As a secure alternative to using
Telnet to manage device configuration, SSH ensures that all data sent over the network is encrypted
and secure.
For more information on how to establish an SSH connection, see the Alteon Application Switch
Operating System Command Reference.
Initial Device Connection
When a connection has been established with the device, the initial screen is displayed.
