Telnet Management Session
Any management workstation on your network that has the Telnet
application protocol can be used to manage an AT-8024, AT-8024GB, or
AT-8026FC Fast Ethernet Switch. This type of management session is
referred to in this guide as a remote management session because you
can manage the switch from any network workstation that has the
application protocol.
To establish a Telnet management session with a switch, there must be
at least one AT-8024, AT-8024GB, or AT-8026FC switch on the subnet
that has been assigned an Internet Protocol (IP) address. Only one switch
in a subnet needs to have an IP address. Once you have established a
Telnet management session with the switch that has an IP address, you
can use the enhanced stacking feature of the AT-S39 software to access
all other switches in the same subnet.
Note
For further information on enhanced stacking, refer to Enhanced
Stacking Overview on page 47.
Note
For instructions on how to start a Telnet management session, refer
to Starting a Telnet Management Session on page 29.
A Telnet management session gives you complete access to all of a
switch’s operating parameters. You can perform all the same functions
from a Telnet management session as you can from a local management
session.
