Creating a Telnet Session
Before you can configure the access point through Telnet,
you must connect the unit to the Ethernet cable. (See
Section 3, “Installation,” for help.) You must also perform
initial configuration through the DIAG port to:
"
Set an IP address or DHCP server name. You should
also configure a subnet mask and IP router address.
"
Set the Ethernet cable type.
" NOTE: The access point includes an autodetect feature that senses the
Ethernet medium if traffic is present. If no traffic is present on the
cable, the system software defaults to 10BASE-T. For most
installations, it is recommended that you explicitly set the Ethernet
type.
The access point must go through its boot sequence before
you can create a Telnet session. If you reboot the unit while
in a session, the session terminates. You can create a new
session after the unit reboots.
To create a Telnet session, see Figure 4-2 and the procedure
following it.
