Telnet provides a textual interface over a LAN. Most PCs have the capability to use Telnet. Navigate the
menus in the same manner as when using the Terminal Interface. With specific exceptions as noted in the
Terminal Interface section, the menus available via Telnet and Serial interfaces are identical.

The “Enable Telnet” option on the Management:Main tab must be
enabled before the user can log into the CMR-8500 with Telnet.
