Chapter Connecting to the Switch using Telnet or SSH If you know the IP address of your Ethernet switch (obtained from your DHCP server or the console interface), you can connect to the switch through a Telnet session. 1. Use your preferred Telnet or Secure Shell Client application, for example HyperTerminal or the Telnet application available through a Windows command window. 2. Open a telnet session using the IP address of your Ethernet switch. For example: telnet 192.168.100.21. The Login screen will appear. 3. Type the user name and password. 4. Press the Enter key. Configuring the Switch through the Console or Telnet Interface The management screens consist of a series of menus. Each menu has several options, which are listed vertically. You select a menu option when you highlight it; pressing the Enter key activates the highlighted option. To navigate through the menus and actions of the console interface, use the up or down arrow keys to move up or down, and use the left or right arrow keys to move left or right. Use the Enter key to select a menu option, and use the Esc key to go to the action menu. Menu options and any values entered or present are highlighted. The bottom of the screen lists the actions available. Linksys One Ready Communications Solution 4 35 Chapter 4: Console Configuration Connecting to the Switch using Telnet or SSH
