9.1.3 Remote Access by Telnet
Figure 37 Follow these steps to access the CLI from a computer behind a VLAN-aware Ethernet
switch on the active Gigabit Ethernet backbone network.

1 The IES’s default STPID (Service VLAN Tag) value is 0x88a8 which is the EtherType for IEEE
802.1ad, known as Q-in-Q. If the aggregated switch’s STPID is set to 0x8100, you must open a
console or local Telnet management session and use the following commands to change the IES’s
STPID to 0x8100 for regular VLAN traffic transmission. This example also uses the show vlan
command to check the STPID first. If the aggregated switch's STPID is 0x88a8, then ignore this
step.
2 Configure the switch to add VLAN tag 1 to any packets it forwards from the computer towards the
IES.
3 Configure any other switches between that switch and the IES to use transparent mode for all
packets (so it forwards VLAN 1 traffic directly).
4 Configure the computer’s IP address and subnet mask as 192.168.1.100 and 255.255.255.0.
5 Open a Telnet session to the IES’s IP address.
