Using Telnet to Access the Switch
In addition to local console access, you can access the switch from a
remote location by using Telnet to make a TCP/IP connection.
The Telnet command syntax depends on the type of terminal or TCP/
IP software you are using. Check the appropriate manual for
information about connecting to a host using Telnet. Telnet requires
the FORMULA 8200’s IP address information has been configured.
To use Telnet to access a remote switch
(example):
The following steps initiate a Telnet session to the switch at IP
address 123.126.22.77.
1. Enter the Telnet command and the IP address at the system
prompt:
telnet 123.126.22.77
2. Enter admin at the login prompt.
Login: admin
3. Enter the password at the password prompt. (If you have not yet
changed the default password, enter switch .)
The system prompt now appears, giving you full access to the
command line interface.

4. Use the EXIT command to log out from the CLI session.
Note
The EXIT command does not end the Telnet session. On certain
systems, pressing the CTRL-6, CTRL-], and [Enter] keys in sequence
disconnects the Telnet session. Refer to your current Telnet manual
for the correct command to disconnect the Telnet session.
