Procedure 14-20.3: Connect personal computer (PC) and establish remote CLI session using Ethernet network

- Overview

Use this procedure to establish a remote CLI session with the VLNC40/VLNC60/VLNC61/VLNC64 circuit pack.

Important!

This procedure assumes that the proper connection interfaces have already been configured using the procedures in Procedure 14-21: Configure VLNC40/VLNC42/VLNC60/VLNC61/VLNC64 for in-band or out-of-band connectivity.

This procedure also assumes that Telnet or secure shell (SSH) access has been configured. See Telnet Commands and/or Secure Shell (SSH) commands in the Alcatel-Lucent 1850 Transport Service Switch (TSS-5) Command Line Interface Guide.

Steps
 
1

Obtain a user name and password, if required, and the IP address of the VLNC40/VLNC42/VLNC60/VLNC61/VLNC64 from your network administrator.

Important!

You must obtain a user name and password if the default user name of admin has been changed.


2

Establish a Telnet or secure shell (SSH) session from your PC using the default IP address or the IP address obtained from your network administrator.

Result:

The login User prompt displays when the terminal interface initializes.


3

Enter user name and password.

Important!

The default User name is admin and the password is blank.

Result:

The User EXEC prompt [(ALU 1850TSS-5-xx) >] displays.

The prompt may be changed using the set prompt <prompt_string> command in the user privilege mode.
