Telnet
You can manage the DES-5016 via Telnet session. However, first you must assign a
unique IP address to the DES-5016. Use Local Console Management to log into the DES-
5016 for the first time so that you can assign an IP address. Once you have assigned an IP
address to the DES-5016, you can use the management method of your choice.
Telnet management can be done through any of the ports on the switch.
Follow these steps to manage the DES-5016 through a Telnet session:
1. Assign an IP address to the DES-5016.
2. Run Telnet.
3. Log into the DES-5016.
