Replace the IP address with the one that was assigned to the RIPM during
installation. You will then be prompted for the username and password information
in order to log in to the device. The credentials that need to be entered for
authentication are identical to those of the web interface. That means the user
management of the Telnet interface is entirely controlled with the appropriate
functions of the web interface. Once you have successfully logged in to the RIPM,
a command line will be presented and you can enter the appropriate management
commands. In general, the Telnet interface supports two operation modes: the
command-line mode and the terminal mode. The command-line mode is used to
control or display some parameters. In terminal mode, the pass-through access to
serial port 1 is activated (if the serial settings were made correctly). To access the
RIPM via serial interface, a null modem cable is required. All inputs are redirected
to the device on serial port 1, and its answers are displayed on the Telnet interface.
The following list shows the command syntax and usage.
Help Displays the list of possible commands.
cls Clears the screen.
quit Exits the current session and disconnects from the client.
version Displays the release information.
terminal Starts the terminal pass-through mode for serial port 1. The
key sequence “esc exit” switches back to the command mode.
The command has an optional parameter (1 or 2) to select the
desired serial port for pass-through access.
