IPS-800/IPS-1600 Series - User’s Guide
c) Via Network: The IPS 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 to redefine the
IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address as described in
Section 5.3.3.
i. Telnet to the IPS’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. If the Telnet connection is refused, this may mean that
either the IP Security feature has denied the connection (See
Section 5.3.4.1), or that the unit is operating on a 100Base-T
network that does not autosense for 10Base-T 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
Plug 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 Plug Password is entered, the IPS will
display the Plug Status Screen shown in Figure 5.2, followed by the
"IPS>" Command Prompt.
Note: The Plug Status Screen will not display actual passwords.
Instead, the password column will read either "defined" or "undefined."
