3-2 NPort Server Pro User’s Manual
Telnet Console
You may use the Telnet program to easily communicate with NPort Server Pro over a TCP/IP
Ethernet network. All you need is the server’s current IP address and a computer running the Telnet
program, provided the computer is hooked up to the server’s network. The example in this section
was generated using a Windows NT/95/98 host.
. Note: After activating the Telnet Console, you will need to use the keyboard keys to
maneuver about the VT100 screen.
q While in the Telnet Console MAIN MENU, the left/right arrow keys move the cursor
between menu headings, and pressing the Enter key activates whichever menu heading
is highlighted.
q After pressing Enter from the MAIN MENU, the Tab key and up/down arrow keys are
used to move between configurable options.
q The Esc key is used to maneuver backwards. For example, if you have made
modifications to the settings listed under the serverConfig menu, press the Esc key to
return to the MAIN MENU.
q Carry out the following procedure to configure the server’s IP address.
1. From the Windows NT/95/98 desktop click on Start and then choose Run.
2. Type telnet [IP_address] in the Open text input box, where
[IP_address] is the IP address of the NPort Server Pro you intend to configure.
Click OK to continue.
3. When the Telnet window opens up, type 1 to select ansi/vt100 for Console terminal
type, and then press Enter on the computer keyboard.
