DI-206 ISDN Remote Router
90
Using Telnet
The DI-206 router can be configured and managed using telnet. Telnet accesses the
same built-in configuration program as the RS-232 Diagnostic port console
connection. As such, all settings that can be adjusted through the console can also be
configured using Telnet.
Telnet Configuration
In order to use telnet, the DI-206 router must first be configured using a console
connected to the RS-232 Diagnostic port. Depending on the placement of the
management station using telnet, the initial configuration requirements for the router
are as follows:
Using Telnet via LAN
Preparing the router for management by telnet over the LAN only requires enabling
the LAN port, enabling telnet, and assigning the LAN port an IP address. To do this:
1.
Connect a console to the RS-232 Diagnostic port on the front panel of the router
and run a terminal emulation program (for more information, see
Connecting the
Console to the Router
and
Setting Up the Console
sections of this manual).
2.
Enable the LAN port in the
Interface Configuration
sub-menu.
3.
Assign an IP address to the LAN port in the
Network Configuration
sub-menu.
4.
Enable Telnet in the
Advanced Functions
submenu.
5.
Connect the router to the LAN.
The router can now be accessed via the LAN by the included Windows-based
Configuration program, Telnet and SNMP management applications. For more
detailed information regarding these procedures, please refer to the
Connecting the
Router
section of this manual. For more information about the submenus, please
refer to the
Configuration and Management
section of this manual.
Using Telnet via ISDN
Preparing the router for management by telnet over ISDN lines requires more initial
configuring of the router via the console.
To do this, you must configure an ISDN port for dial-in users. Please refer to the
Interface Configuration,
ISDN
submenu
section of this manual.
