Administration
Using the Telnet Utility
3 If you do not know the IP address or hostname of the Gateway:
n After the Gateway has been powered-on, press the Config
Preset
button on the back panel of the LAN/GPIB Gateway.
This forces the Gateway to temporarily use the 192.0.0.192
default IP address without modifying any other configuration
values.
n If you are using an HP-UX client system, as root, type route
add host 192.0.0.192 your_system_name
Return.
n If you are using a Windows 95/98/2000/Me/NT client system,
at the > prompt in the MS-DOS window, type route add
192.0.0.192 your_system_name
Enter. This sets up a route
table entry on your client system for the Gateway at its default
IP address.
4 To connect you to the Gateway at its temporary (default) IP address,
use the
following commands. If you are using an HP-UX client system,
type:
telnet 192.0.0.192 Return. If you are using a Windows 95/
98/Me/2000/NT client system, type: telnet 192.0.0.192
Enter.
When you are connected to the Gateway’s Telnet utility, you will
see a listing of the main Telnet commands and a listing of the
current configuration values for this Gateway.
The following is an example screen for an E2050 LAN/GPIB
Gateway. Many of the configuration values in this example screen
are not the default values, which means this example Gateway was
previously configured. The configuration values you see for your
Gateway may be different from those shown here.
