DSU ProxyServer User Guide
Remote Management
This section describes typical client applications that can be used to configure the ProxyServer
remotely. It is important to note that although any subsequent changes to configuration can be
made using these applications, the initial setup and configuration of the ProxyServer must be
done on the local PC, using the ProxyServer software provided with your unit.
Although establishing access to the ProxyServer varies between applications, the configuration
functions mirror those of the ProxyServer software. For more information on ProxyServer
software, refer to Chapter 4 - Proxy Server Software.
Telnet
A typical Telnet client application is described in this chapter. The DSU ProxyServer has a built-in
Telnet Server that enables Telnet client PCs to access the ProxyServer. A typical Telnet client is
allowed to configure the ProxyServer and WAN devices. A typical TCP/IP program group is
shown below with a Tcpman icon and a Telnet icon.
The TCP/IP stack has to be loaded before the Telnet client (a Windows application) will run. The
Telnet Server option has to be selected from the Applications Setup dialog box using the Proxy
Server Configuration icon. Double click on the Telnet icon (or shortcut) and a blank Telnet screen
is displayed. Click Connect | Remote System and the Connect dialog box is displayed. Select
(or enter) a Host Name (the IP address of the ProxyServer). In this example, the Host Name is
192.168.2.8.
When you enter a valid Host Name (IP address) and click on the Connect button, you are
immediately connected to the target ProxyServer and the Proxy Server Management Menu
screen is displayed.
