DHCP/Telnet/SSH

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a communications protocol that lets network
administrators manage centrally and automate the assignment of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses in an
organization's network. Default setting is DISABLED.

Telnet is a user command and an underlying TCP/IP protocol for accessing remote devices. On the
Web, HTTP and FTP protocols allow you to request specific files from remote computers, but not to
actually be logged on as a user of that computer. Default setting is ENABLED.

IMPORTANT: Changing this setting will logout all SSH and Telnet sessions

Secure Shell (SSH), sometimes known as Secure Socket Shell, is a Unix-based command interface and
protocol for securely getting access to a remote computer. It is widely used by network administrators
to control Web and other kinds of servers remotely. Default setting is ENABLED.

IMPORTANT: changing this setting will logout all SSH and Telnet sessions

SSH Host Key Generation

Selecting this option allows the user to generate a unique SSH host key for the RPC unit. This key is
part of the SSH encryption process. Each RPC leaving Baytech is shipped with same default SSH host
key. It is important that the user generate a new SSH host key if SSH communications will be used.

NOTE: It can take the RPC up to 10 minutes to generate a new host key.

IP Filter Configuration

The IP Filter Management Menu allows the admin user to pass or block certain IP Addresses.
If you have no rules defined the RPC may display only options (A, E, C).
