Western Telematic IPS-15 Switch User Manual


 
c) Via Network: The IPS-15 includes a default IP address
(192.168.168.168), which allows you to contact the unit
from any network node on the same subnet. When the IPS
is installed in a working network environment, it is
recommended that you redefine the IP Address, Subnet
Mask, and Gateway Address as described in Section 5.3.3.
i.
Telnet to the IPS-15's IP address. For example, if the
IP address is "192.168.168.168", then on a UNIX
system, the Telnet command would be:
$ telnet 192.168.168.168 [Enter]
ii.
Note that if the Telnet connection is refused, this may
mean that either the IP Security feature has denied the
connection, or the unit is operating on a 100BaseT
network that does not autosense for 10BaseT devices
(see Section 4.4.)
2. Password: If the System Password has been defined, the unit
will display the Password Prompt. Key in either the System
Password or User Password, and press [Enter]. If the System
Password has not been defined, the prompt will not be
displayed when the unit is accessed via the Text Interface.
Note that the Password feature is case sensitive.
3. If a valid System Password or User Password is entered, the
IPS will display the Plug Status Screen as shown in
Figure 5.2, followed by the IPS> Command Prompt.
