Control Console
How to Log On
Overview
You can use either a local (serial) connection, or a remote (Telnet)
connection to access the control console.
Use case-sensitive user name and password entries to log on (by default,
apc and apc, for an Administrator, or device and apc, for a Device
Manager).
Remote access to the control console
You can use Telnet to log on to the control console.
1. At a command prompt, type telnet and the System IP address for
the MasterSwitch Plus (when the unit uses the default telnet port of
23), and then press E
NTER. For example:
telnet 139.225.6.133
2. Enter your user name and password.
If you cannot remember your user name or password, see
How to Recover From a Lost Password.
If the unit uses a non-default port number (between 5000
and 32767), include a colon or a space (depending on your
Telnet client) after the IP address and then the port number.
