30 User’s Guide
For example, if the MGT interface has an address of
10.100.2.183
, enter:
telnet
10.100.2.183
3. At the Username prompt, type your user name (default is netscreen).
4. At the Password prompt, type your password (default is netscreen).
5. (Optional) By default, the console times out and terminates automatically after
10 minutes of idle time. To change this timeout interval, execute the following
command:
set console timeout number
where number is the length of idle time in minutes before session termination.
To prevent any automatic termination, specify a value of 0.
Starting a Console Session Using Dialup
Each NetScreen-5000 Series device provides a modem port that allows you to establish a
remote console session using a dialup connection through a 9600 bps modem. Dialing into
the modem establishes a dialup console connection.
Establishing a GUI Management Session
To access the NetScreen-5000 Series device with the WebUI management application:
1. Connect your computer (or your LAN hub) to the MGT interface using a
Category-5 Ethernet cable. (The MGT interface is on the 5000-M or 5000-M2
management modules, which always reside in slot 1.)
2. Launch your browser, enter the IP address of the MGT interface in the URL
field, then press Enter.
Note: Use lowercase letters only. Both username and password are case-sensitive.
Note: The Terminal type for dialup sessions must be vt100. For example, in Hilgreave
HyperTerminal (a commonly-used terminal application), click Connect, select Remote
System from the dropdown menu, then select vt100 from the Term Type menu.
