Mediant 8000
17.2 Connecting to the CLI via the IP Internet Network
When IP connectivity with the Mediant 8000 is available, use Secure Shell (SSH) or
Telnet client to connect to the Mediant 8000 CLI interface.
If you wish to connect to the CLI interface on the Active SC board, establish
connection with the Global IP address on the SC board (this floating IP address is
automatically assigned to the Active SC board and is moved to another SC board
when activity switchover is performed). If you wish to connect to the CLI interface on a
specific SC board, use the corresponding corresponding SC board’s private IP
address.
17.2.1 Connecting to the CLI via Secure Shell (SSH)
The SSH software is not available on Windows-based PC by default. Install the
standards-compliant SSHv2 client to connect to the SC board's CLI interface via SSH
protocol, for example:

PuTTY (http://www.putty.nl)

TeraTerm Pro v4.x (http://sourceforge.jp/projects/ttssh2)
Starting from v5.8, the PuTTY application is provided on the “Mediant 5000/Mediant
8000 System Software Installation” CD included in the accessory kit accompanying
the Mediant 8000 (in Utilities\PuTTY folder).
 To connect to the CLI via SSH protocol using PuTTY:
1. Start PuTTY. The PuTTY Configuration dialog appears.
