Command Console
In addition to the functionality of the HTTB browser interface, more functions can be performed via the command line
interface (CLI) Most Command Line Interface (CLI) commands may be entered directly from the HTTP Browser’s Command
Console screen:
Telnet
Although most radio functions can be managed via the browser interface, the command line interface (CLI) does provide
slightly more functionality. Most importantly, there are two important functions that must be performed via CLI, that can not
be performed via the web browser interface:
CLI Functions not available in Browser Interface
• Change Password (_password command)
• RSSI Continuous readout (rssi command)
To initiate a Telnet session with the TrangoFOX, first open a command prompt (DOS) session on your PC. Open a Telnet
session by typing
telnet [ip address of radio]
Example:
C:>telnet 192.168.100.100
 Note: All Trango radios (AP and SU) come factory pre-configured with a default IP address 192.168.100.100.
You will be greeted with current hardware and firmware information and prompted for a password. Type in the password and
press enter.
 Note: The factory default password is trango.
 Note: If you can not telnet into the radio, check cable connections, ensure proper use of cross-over vs. straight-through
cable, ensure PC’s subnet is routable to radio’s IP address.
