The External Tools Feature

The management server ships with an external tools feature that lets you:

Browse the element - Access a host or a switch through its main Web page. The software

assumes the host or switch has a Web page at http://hsIPaddress, where hsIPaddress

is the IP address of the host or switch. To access the main Web page of the host or switch,

right-click the element in System Manager and select External Tools > Browse to 192.168.1.2,

where 192.168.1.2 is the IP address of the host or switch.

Telnet to the element - Access a host or a switch through the telnet utility. Telnet must be already

enabled on the element. The command uses telnet://hsIPaddress, where hsIPaddress

is the IP address of the host or switch. To telnet to a host or switch, right-click the element in

System Manager and select External Tools > Telnet to 192.168.1.2, where 192.168.1.2 is the IP

address of the host or switch.
