Interface Access and System Information Interface Access: Console/Serial Link, Web, and Inbound Telnet Outbound Telnet to Another Device. This feature operates independently of the telnet-server status and enables you to Telnet to another device that has an IP address. Syntax: telnet [oobm] Initiates an outbound telnet session to another network device. The destination can be specified as: • IPv4 address • IPv6 address • Hostname • Stack number of a member switch (1-16) if the switch is a commander in a stack and stacking is enabled • The oobm parameter specifies that the Telnet traffic will go out from the out-of-band management interface. If this parameter is not specified, the Telnet traffic goes out from the data interface. Refer to Appendix G, "Network Out-of-Band Management" in this guide for more information on out-of-band management. For example, if the host "Labswitch" is in the domain abc.com, you can enter the following command and the destination is resolved to "Labswitch.abc.com". ProCurve(config)# telnet Labswitch You can also enter the full domain name in the command: ProCurve(config)# telnet Labswitch.abc.com You can use the show telnet command to display the resolved IP address. 7-6
