BitStorm Server telnet connection
For the initial configuration of the BitStorm Server, you can telnet to the
StormTracker Configuration Manager by connecting directly to the ETH 0
interface using a Category 5 cross-over cable. You can also telnet to the
StormTracker Configuration Manager over an existing network connection to
the ETH 0 interface to change configuration settings. Figure 3-5 on page 3-6
shows the methods for connecting to the StormTracker Configuration
Manager over telnet.

CAUTION - Possible network conflict
The BitStorm Server ETH 0 interface has a default TCP/IP address configuration
which could conflict with the host network. DO NOT connect the ETH 0 interface to
a host network until you have re-configured the ETH 0 interface with a TCP/IP
configuration that is valid for the host network.
