USER’S GUIDE
564 CyberSWITCH
on the same subnetwork as the Telnet client on System 1’s LAN, a static route is needed to allow
System 2 to communicate with devices on Network 1. Because the CyberSWITCH had no Telnet
client capabilities in previous releases, the only way to fix the problem was to physically go to the
remote site and add a static route.
The second example network shown illustrates the current CyberSWITCH release. System 1 has
Telnet client capabilities, and therefore can simply Telnet to System 2 and add the needed static
route.

To access the CyberSWITCH using Telnet, you must have a Telnet client software package. A
Telnet client software package is built into the CyberSWITCH. With the CyberSWITCH acting as
the Telnet client, simply enter the
telnet <ip address>
command to Telnet into the target
host. Refer to the System Commands chapter for a complete listing of available
Telnet commands
.
If you are using a PC or a workstation as a Telnet client, it must have a Telnet client software
package. From the Telnet client package, issue the command that will allow you to connect to the
