to
the

. When
enabled
,
a
Telnet
client on
a

computer
can
connect
to a
serial device
attached
to
this serial port on t
he
Console Server
.
T
he default port
address is
IP Address _ Port (2
000 + serial port #) i.e.

.
Telnet
communications are unencrypted
,
so this protocol is
generally
recommended
for local
connections
only
.
However
,
i
f the remote communications are being tunneled with
SDT
Connector
, then
Telne
t
can be used
to
securely ac
cess
these attached devices
(
see Note below
).
With

you can run
Telnet
from the command prompt (
cmd.exe
)
.

Control Panel/Programs and Features
Select
Turn Windows Features On or O
ff,
c
heck the

SDT Connector
to set up secure
Telnet
connections that are SSH tunneled from their client
c
omputer
s to the serial port on the
Console Server
with a simple point
-
and
-
click.
To use
SDT Connector
to acc
ess consoles on the
Console Server
serial ports, configure
the
SDT
Connector

Console Server
as a
gateway
, then as a
host
.
Now e
nable
Telnet
service on

2048.
Refer
to
Chapter 6
for more details
on using
SDT
Con
nector
for
Telnet
and SSH access to devices attached to the
Console Server
serial ports.
You can also use standard communications packages like
PuTTY
to set a direct
Telnet
(or SSH)
connection
to the serial ports (refer
to the
Note
below)
:
Note
PuTTY
also
supports
Telnet
(and SSH)
.
T
he procedure to se
t up a
Telnet
sess
ion is simple:
Enter
the
Console Server
’s
IP address as the ‘Host Name (or IP address)’. Select
Telnet
as the
protocol and set the ‘TCP port’ to 2000 plus the physical serial port number (
i
.e.
2001 to 2048).
Click the ‘Open’ button. You may then receive a ‘Security Alert’ th
