Access the command line

To configure devices using commands, you must first access the command line, and then log on as

needed.

This procedure assumes that you have already configured the ConnectPort LTS product with an IP

address.

1. To access the command-line interface for the ConnectPort LTS product, enter the following

command from a command prompt on another networked device, such as a server:

telnet

ip address

ssh

user@ ip address

Where:

ip address is the ConnectPort LTS product’s IP address.

user is the username on ConnectPort LTS product.

For example:

telnet 192.3.23.5

ssh root@192.2.23.5

Or connect to the serial console port with a terminal emulator.

Introduction Configure an IP address

ConnectPort® LTS Command Reference 9

2. A login prompt is displayed. If you do not know the user name and password for the device,

contact the system administrator who configured the device. The default username is “root”

and the default password is “dbps.”

3. If the system interface access option of the user is set as “Shell”, the bash-shell can be

accessed after authentication is passed. To access configuration-shell from the bash-shell,

enter following command on the bash-shell.

configshell

If the system interface access option of the user is set as “CLI menu”, the configuration-shell

can be accessed directly after authentication is passed. For details on configuring the system

interface access option, see the Digi product’s User’s Guide or the “set user” command.

Configure an IP address

If the device to which you will be issuing commands has not already been assigned an IP address, or if

the IP address needs to be modified from its initial configuration, see the Digi product’s User’s Guide

for details on configuring an IP address.
