IMPORTANT: Telnet access is not secure unless a password is set. We strongly recommend you set system passwords as part of the appliance initialization process. For more information, see Password Dialog Box.
You can manage the iChain Proxy Services by using commands from a workstation with a Telnet connection to the appliance.
This section assumes you are using a Windows* 95/98 or Windows NT* 4 workstation. If you are using another type of workstation, use the following steps as general guidelines to configure your Telnet software to work with the appliance.
IMPORTANT: The appliance Telnet connection supports only the VT-100 terminal type.
Ensure that you have a network connection between the workstation that you are running Telnet on and the appliance.
Click Start > run TELNET.EXE.
From the Telnet screen, click Terminal > Preferences.
