2.2.3 Telnet

2.2.3.1 Introduction To Telnet

Telnet is a simple remote terminal protocol for remote login. Using Telnet, the user

can login to a remote host with its IP address of hostname from his own workstation.

Telnet can send the user’s keystrokes to the remote host and send the remote host

output to the user’s screen through TCP connection. This is a transparent service, as to

the user, the keyboard and monitor seems to be connected to the remote host directly.

Telnet employs the Client-Server mode, the local system is the Telnet client and the

remote host is the Telnet server. ES4624-SFP/ES4626-SFP switch can be either the

Telnet Server or the Telnet client.

When ES4624-SFP/ES4626-SFP switch is used as the Telnet server, the user can

use the Telnet client program included in Windows or the other operation systems to login

to ES4624-SFP/ES4626-SFP switch, as described earlier in the In-band management

section. As a Telnet server, ES4624-SFP/ES4626-SFP switch allows up to 5 telnet client

TCP connections.

And as Telnet client, using telnet command under Admin Mode allows the user to

connection to one remote host. If a connection to another remote host is desired, the

current TCP connection must be dropped.
