Remotely, Using Telnet
The HP AdvanceStack hubs support a Telnet console session. By default,
Telnet is enabled. You can disable Telnet by using the IPconfig console
command.
To establish a Telnet session, follow these steps:
1. Verify the hub you are accessing has an HP 100VG SNMP/Bridge Module
installed, that it has been configured with an IP address, and that it is
accessible from your PC or workstation by using the ping command.
2. Enter the command telnet followed by the IP address or system name of
the hub, for example:
telnet 192.1.1.10
or
telnet your_hub
(Your Telnet syntax depends on your TCP/IP software or your terminal
server. You can only use a system name if you have name resolution such
as DNS.)
To end the Telnet session, type DI (the Disconnect command) to terminate the
console session. Or use your Telnet application’s command to close or quit
the Telnet session.
