Remote Management

This chapter discusses Telnet and remote management of the Prestige using NAT.

13.1 About

Telnet

Before the Prestige 1600 is properly setup for TCP/IP, the only option for configuring it is through the console port.
Once your Prestige 1600 is configured, you can use telnet to configure it remotely. You can also use a modem for
remote configuration as shown in chapter One.

Figure 13-1 Remote Management Using Telnet

To manage the Prestige primary, telnet directly to the primary, using your computer’s telnet client. For example on
a PC, type:

telnet (where “primary machine WAN IP address” is a real IP address.)

13.2 Telnet Behind NAT

To manage Prestige secondaries, telnet to the Primary first and then use the embedded Prestige telnet client to telnet
to the secondary. Go to SMT Menu 24.8 Command Interpreter Mode and type:

ip telnet (where “secondary machine IP address” may be a private IP address.)

A later section in this chapter shows you how to configure NAT on the Prestige for this scenario.

Note: Only one connection can be active at any given time. The console port connection has

precedence. Remote users cannot telnet in when the local administration is logged in.
