Prestige 128MH PSTN Router/Hub
12-2
Chapter 12 Telnet Configuration and Capabilities
In order to configure your Prestige in this way, you need to have assigned an IP Address to your
PSTN Router/Hub and have connected it to your network. If your Prestige is configured for IPX
routing but not IP in Menu 1, [telnet] will still be available provided you assign the Prestige an
IP address.
12.2 Telnet Capabilities
12.2.1 Single Administrator
To prevent confusion and discrepancy on the configuration, your Prestige will only allow one
terminal connection at any time. Your Prestige also gives priority to the RS-232 connection over
[telnet]. If you have already connected to your Prestige via [telnet], you will be logged out
if another user is connecting to the Prestige via the RS-232 cable. Only after the other
administrator has been disconnected will you be able to [telnet] to your Prestige again.
12.2.2 System Timeout
When you are connected to your Prestige via [telnet], there is a system timeout of 5 minutes
(300 seconds). If you are not configuring the device and leave it inactive for this timeout period,
then your Prestige will automatically disconnect you.
