Telnet Configuration and Capabilities
This chapter covers the Telnet Configuration and Capabilities of the Prestige.
9.1 About Telnet Configuration
Before the Prestige is properly setup for TCP/IP, the only option for configuring it is through the console
port. Once your Prestige is configured, you can use telnet to configure it remotely as shown in the following
figure.

9.2 Telnet Capabilities
9.2.1 Single Administrator
To prevent confusion and discrepancy on the configuration, your Prestige only allows one administrator to
log in at any time. Your Prestige also gives priority to the console port over telnet. If you have already
connected to your Prestige via telnet, you are logged out if another user logs in to the Prestige via the
console port.
9.2.2 System Timeout
There is a system timeout of 5 minutes (300 seconds) for either the console port or telnet. Your Prestige
automatically logs you out if you do nothing in this timeout period, except when it is continuously updating
the status in Menu 24.1.
