Chapter 13:
Telnet Configuration and Capabilities
This chapter covers the Telnet Configuration and Capabilities of the Prestige.
13.1 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 below.
Figure 13-1 Telnet Configuration on a TCP/IP Network
When IP routing is disabled, the Prestige can still function as a host.
13.2 Telnet Under SUA
When SUA is enabled and an inside server is specified, telnet connections from the outside will be
forwarded to the inside server. So to configure the Prestige via telnet from the outside, you must first telnet to
the inside server, and then telnet from the server to the Prestige using its inside LAN IP address. If no insider
server is specified, telnet to the SUA's IP address will connect to the Prestige directly.
13.3 Telnet Capabilities
13.3.1 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 will be logged out if another user logs in to the Prestige via the
console port.
