Configuration by Telnet Console
You may use Telnet to access the EDS-828’s console utility over a network. To be able to access
the EDS’s functions over the network (by Telnet or Web Browser) from a PC host that is
connected to the same LAN as the EDS-828, you need to make sure that the PC host and the
EDS-828 are on the same logical subnetwork. To do this, check your PC host’s IP address and
subnet mask. By default, the EDS-828’s IP address is 192.168.127.253 and the EDS-828’s subnet
mask is 255.255.255.0 (for a Class C network). If you do not change these values, and your PC
host’s subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, then its IP address must have the form 192.168.127.xxx. On
the other hand, if your PC host’s subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, then its IP address must have the
form 192.168.127.xxx.
NOTE
To use the EDS-828’s management and monitoring functions from a PC host connected to the
same LAN as the EDS-828, you must make sure that the PC host and the EDS-828 are on the
same logical subnetwork.
NOTE
Before accessing the console utility via Telnet, first connect one of the EDS-828’s RJ45 Ethernet
ports to your Ethernet LAN, or directly to your PC’s Ethernet NIC. You can establish a
connection with either a straight-through or cross-over Ethernet cable.
NOTE
The EDS-828’s default IP is 192.168.127.253.
Follow the steps below to access the console utility via Telnet.
1. Click on Start Æ Run, and then telnet to the EDS-828’s IP address from the Windows Run
window. (You may also issue the telnet command from the MS-DOS prompt.)
2. Type 1 to choose ansi/vt100, and then press Enter.
3. The Console login screen will appear. Press Enter to open the Account pop-up selector and
then select either admin or user. Use the keyboard’s down arrow to move the cursor to the
Password field, enter the Console Password (this is the same as the Web Browser password;
leave the Password field blank if a console password has not been set), and then press Enter.
