If aconnection is lost inadvertently, the connection is closed by the hubafter about 30 minutes of inactivity.You can manage the hub or stack over the network, through any ofthe ports. However, for the communication to work over the network,the port through which your communication reaches the stack must beconnected to segment 1 (either directly or indirectly) of the hub withthe IP address configured.Using a Telnet Terminal EmulatorYou can use the Telnet terminal emulator that comes with MicrosoftWindows ‘95 (called ‘Telnet’) to access the hub’s CLI.To open the Telnet session, you must specify the IP address of the hubyou want to manage. For other types of management stations andoperating systems, refer to the documentation that accompanies yourTelnet terminal emulator for information on how to do this.Telnet The Telnet application (‘Telnet.exe’) can usually be found in theWindows directory on your PC.
