Configuration Using a Telnet Console

You may use Telnet to access the IE-SW-VL08M’s console utility over a network. To be able to

access the IE-SW-VL08M-’s functions over the network (using Telnet or a Web Browser) from a

PC host that is connected to the same LAN as the IE-SW-VL08M, you need to make sure that the PC

host and the IE-SW-VL08M are on the same logical sub network. To do this, check your PC host’s

IP address and netmask. By default, the IE-SW-VL08M’s IP address is 192.168.1.110 and the

netmask is 255.255.255.0 (for a Class C network). If you do not change these values, and your PC

host’s netmask is 255.255.255.0, then its IP address must have the form 192.168.1.xxx. On the other

hand, if your PC host’s netmask is 255.255.255.0, then its IP address must have the form

192.168.1.xxx.

NOTE

To use the IE-SW-VL08M’s management and monitoring functions from a PC host connected to

the same LAN as the IE-SW-VL08M’, you must make sure that the PC host and the

IE-SW-VL08M’s are on the same logical sub network.

The IE-SW-VL08M’s default IP address is 192.168.1.110.

Perform the following steps to access the console utility via Telnet.

1. Telnet to the IE-SW-VL08M’s IP address from the Windows Run window (or from the command

prompt).

NOTE

Before accessing the console utility via Telnet, first connect one of the IE-SW-VL08M’s RJ45

Ethernet ports to your Ethernet LAN, or connect directly to your PC’s Ethernet NIC. You can

establish a connection with either a straight-through or cross-over Ethernet cable. If you have

difficulty connecting, refer to the Auto MDI/MDI-X Connection section from the Hardware

installation Guide for more information about the different types of Ethernet cables and ports.
