Telnetting to the Port

Use this ???????????troubleshooting procedure when you are checking a RealPort connection from the RealPort host to a PortServer port.

Procedure

  1. Attach a dumb terminal to the PortServer port you are testing.

  2. From the root prompt, enter:

telnet ipaddress [2000+port number]

where ipaddress is the IP address of the PortServer and an example of [2000+port number] would be 2001 for port number 1, 2016 for port number 16, and so on.

  1. Close the Telnet connection once you reach.
