Starting and Ending a CLI Session
Open a telnet connection from a workstation on your network.
You initiate a telnet connection by issuing the following command from an IP host that sup-
ports telnet, for example, a personal computer running a telnet application such as NCSA
Telnet.
telnet <ip_address>
You must know the IP address of the Netopia Gateway before you can make a telnet con-
nection to it. By default, your Netopia Gateway uses 192.168.1.254 as the IP address for
its LAN interface. You can use a Web browser to configure the Netopia Gateway IP address.
Logging In
The command line interface log-in process emulates the log-in process for a UNIX host. To
logon, enter the username (either admin or user), and your password.
Entering the administrator password lets you display and update all Netopia Gateway
settings.
Entering a user password lets you display (but not update) Netopia Gateway settings.
When you have logged in successfully, the command line interface lists the username and
the security level associated with the password you entered in the diagnostic log.
Ending a CLI Session
You end a command line interface session by typing quit from the SHELL node of the
command line interface hierarchy.
