Telnet
You can manage the RoamAbout R2 by using Telnet to access the console port menu.
However, you must first assign the R2 an IP address. Perform the following steps to access
the R2 through Telnet:
1. Open a DOS Prompt.
2. Telnet to the IP Address that you assigned to the RoamAbout R2.
For example: telnet 10.0.0.00
You are prompted for a username and password. The default username is admin and
the default password is password. The Main Menu displays.
3. Ensure that your preferences are set to use the arrow keys.
If SSH was enabled for secure Telnet sessions, you need an SSH application to access the
R2. The SSH application must support SSH V2 or later. How you connect to the R2 through
SSH depends on the configuration of the SSH application.
Web Management
You can manage the RoamAbout R2 through your web browser. However, you must first
assign the R2 an IP address.
The RoamAbout R2 web interface does not support configuring CDP or TLS.
The web management runs on the following browsers:
• Netscape Communicator V4.5, V4.6, V4.7 and V6.0 (and later)
• Microsoft Internet Explorer V4.0 (only if TLS is disabled), V5.0, and later
You must set the browser proxy to Direct Internet Connection. Then enter the IP address
that you assigned to the RoamAbout R2 in the browser window. You are prompted for a
username and password. The default username is admin and the default password is
password.
If TLS is enabled, you must specify HTTPS with the IP address. To connect to the R2, the
client must accept a certificate.
Once connected, a navigation tree displays on the left. Access the Help page for a
description of each feature.
