PRELIMINAR
Y
• If the unit is on, it sends the boot and copyright messages when you first open
a Telnet connection to the unit. You can see the day of the week, date, and time
if the unit is connected via Telnet, but not via RS-232. If you are using a Telnet
connection, the copyright message, date, and time are followed by a password
prompt (if set).
Password information
The “ ] Password:” prompt requires a password (administrator level or user level)
followed by a carriage return.
If the correct password is entered, the unit responds with “
] Login Administrator
] ” or “ ] Login User ] ”, depending on password entered. If passwords are the
same for both administrator and user, the unit defaults to administrator privileges.
