Telnet Commands
Table 4-1 lists the Telnet commands you can use to administer the E2050
LAN/GPIB Gateway. Many Telnet commands are for configuration purposes
only. These commands have a colon (“:”) and italicized value parameter
after them (for example, allow: IP_address(es)).
You should use the Telnet configuration commands only if you are using the
Telnet configuration method to configure the Gateway. If, instead, you are
using the BOOTP or the BOOTP with TFTP configuration methods, follow
the procedures in Chapter 3.
You can see a summary of all the Telnet commands online by typing ? at
any time within the Telnet utility.
CAUTION
Any client operations in progress and client connections will be
terminated by the reboot command.
CAUTION
Any client operations in progress and client connections will be
terminated by the factory-reset command when it reboots the
Gateway.
