Accessing the System
Accessing SPE310s Through Telnet
You can access SPE310s through Telnet, as follows:
Step 1 On a PC, choose Start > Run. 
Step 2 Enter the following command to open a Telnet session, where IP address is the 
IP address of the SPE310 that you wish to communicate with:
telnet IP address 5000
Step 3 Log in as an administrator (user ID administrator), and enter your password (the 
default is changeme).
Accessing the Cisco IOS CLI on ASIs, MRPs, and the SSP Through Telnet
You must use the Cisco IOS CLI to configure the ASIs, MRPs, and SSP. You can 
open a Telnet or HyperTerminal session to access individual ASIs or MRPs or the 
SSP so that you can configure them individually, using Cisco IOS software 
commands. 
Note Some Cisco IOS commands are not intended for use on the Cisco ICS 7750 
through the CLI. See the “Best Practices for Using the Cisco IOS CLI” section on 
page 5-16.
For example, to determine which Cisco IOS software release is running on an 
ASI, MRP, or the SSP, follow these steps:
Step 1 Choose Start > Run. 
Step 2 Enter the following command to open a Telnet session, where IP address is the 
IP address of the card that you intend to communicate with:
telnet IP address
