Remote access to the control console
You can access the control console through Telnet or SSH, depending on
which is enabled. (An Administrator can enable these access methods
through the Telnet/SSH option of the Network menu.) By default, Telnet is
enabled. Enabling SSH automatically disables Telnet.
Telnet for basic access. Telnet provides the basic security of
authentication by user name and password, but not the high-security
benefits of encryption. To use Telnet to access the control console from any
computer on the same subnet:
1. At a command prompt, type telnet and the System IP address for
the Network Management Card (when the Network Management Card
uses the default Telnet port of 23), and press
ENTER. For example, for
a system with an IP address is 198.168.6.133 you would type the
following:
telnet 198.168.6.133
2. Enter the user name and password (by default, apc and apc for an
Administrator, or device and apc for a Device Manager).
Note
If the Network Management Card uses a non-default port
number (between 5000 and 32767), you need to include a
colon or a space (depending on your Telnet client) between the
IP address and the port number.
