Once you have set up an IP interface and configured it to allow management traffic, you can open a Telnet session to the switch. To open a Telnet session, you must use one of the commercially available Telnet clients. Launch the Telnet client application and open a Telnet session with the IP address of the management interface. The switch will display its login prompt.
If the TCP port for Telnet requests is set to a port number other than 23, you must specify the TCP port number in addition to the IP address or host name to start a Telnet session. For example, if you change the TCP port from 23 to 9998 on switch 192.168.0.126, enter telnet 192.168.0.126 9998 to start a Telnet session. For information on how to change the TCP port for Telnet requests, see "Changing the TCP Ports for HTTP and Telnet" later in this chapter.
Once logged into the switch through a Telnet session, you can manage the switch using CLI commands. For more information on CLI commands, see the Command Reference Guide for the Avaya P580 and P882 Multiservice Switches, Software Version 6.2.
