Chapter 2: Installation and Configuration 11 Configuring the IP address and subnet mask You may use any of three methods to configure the CPS IP address and subnet mask: BootP, Telnet Command Line Interface (CLI) or the serial CLI on port 1.
12 CPS Installer/User Guide After the IP address is configured successfully, launch a Telnet session to the CPS IP address. Then, see Initial CPS login in this chapter.
Chapter 2: Installation and Configuration 13 4. Proceed to Initial C PS login in this chapt er . After you complete the CPS configuration, you may reconfigure the CLI on another port or disable it completely and use port 1 with an attached device. For more information, see Connecting to devices from the serial CLI port in Chapter 3.
14 CPS Installer/User Guide Reinitializing the CPS Reinitializing the CPS removes configured information. This may be useful when reinstalling the CPS at another location in your network. The CPS stores configuration information in FLASH databases. During reinitialization, the FLASH erase has two phases.

Chapter 3: Operations 17 Chapter 3: Operations Overview The CPS and its ports can be easily configured and managed to meet your requirements for device connection, user authentication, access control, power status monitoring, port history information display and SNMP compliance for use with third-party network management products.
18 CPS Installer/User Guide To confi gure serial console port settings: Issue a Port Set command. You may specify settings for one or all ports. POR T [< port >|ALL] S ET TD=CON S OLE [ N AM E=.
Chapter 3: Operations 19 Connecting to Serial Devices The CPS offers several methods for connecting to attached serial devices: Telnet, serial CLI, PPP and SSH.
20 CPS Installer/User Guide Connecting to devices using Telnet Each CPS serial port is directly addressable via a unique TCP port number that provides a connection to the attached serial device.
Chapter 3: Operations 21 Standalone third-party Telnet clients You may use third-party Telnet clients to access the CPS directly without DS management software. Connecting to devices from the serial CLI port By factory default, port 1 of the CPS is configured with the serial CLI, which prohibits the use of port 1 with an attached serial device.
22 CPS Installer/User Guide 3. T o end a device session t hat w as initiated wit h a Connect c ommand, issue a Disconnec t command. DIS CO NNEC T For more information, see Server CLI command , Connect Command and Disconnect Command in Chapter 5.

24 CPS Installer/User Guide Connecting to devices using SSH The CPS supports version 2 of the SSH (Secure Shell) protocol (SSH2). The CPS SSH server operates on the standard SSH port 22. The shell for this connection provides a CLI prompt as if you had established a Telnet connection on port 23.
Chapter 3: Operations 25 SSH Authentication Methods Method Description PW (default) SS H connections will be authenticated with a username/ password. With this method, a user’s defi nition must include a valid password in order for that user to authenticate an SSH session.
26 CPS Installer/User Guide For more information, see Using Authentication Modes and Encryption in this chapter. SSH user keys A user’s SSH key is specified in a User Add or User Set command. You may define a key even if SSH is not currently enabled.
Chapter 3: Operations 27 4. If y ou are reenabling S S H, y ou are prompt ed to use t he existing S S H serv er key or genera t e a new key . Enter Y t o use the existing key or N t o generate a new key . For more information, see Server SSH command in Chapter 5.

30 CPS Installer/User Guide 2. T o display informa t ion about all users, issue a Show U ser command wit h the All parameter . SH O W US ER ALL For more information, see Show User command in Chapter 5. Access rights and levels Most CPS commands require the user to have access rights to use the commands.
Chapter 3: Operations 31 • The ADM I N lev el is equivalent to P ALL, U S ER , S MO N, PC ON and B R EAK A user’s access level can be used for preemption. For example, assume User A is connected to a port. User B tries to connect to the same port.
32 CPS Installer/User Guide Local authentication Local authentication uses the CPS unit’s internal user database to authenticate users. RADIUS authentication RADIUS authentication uses an external third-party RADIUS server containing a user database to authenticate CPS users.
Chapter 3: Operations 33 This method cannot be used when SSH connections are enabled, nor can it be combined with any other authentication method. Authentication summary The CPS allows concurrent use of multiple authentication modes.
34 CPS Installer/User Guide ENCRYPT=< encrypt > DSAUTH=< dsauth > If y ou specify D S authent ic ation, y ou must : Spec ify the I P address of a primary DS aut hentic ation serv er and optionally , t he I P address of a secondary D S aut hentic ation serv er .
Chapter 3: Operations 35 Since the CPS allows multiple connection modes to operate concurrently, you can specify multiple encryption types. For example, the following command enables connections via Telnet and via DSView SSL Telnet using Triple DES or RC4 encryption.
36 CPS Installer/User Guide A locked-out user will remain locked-out until the specified time elapses, the CPS is power-cycled or the user is unlocked by an administrator with the User Unlock command. A user with the ADMIN access level can unlock all users except a user with the APPLIANCEADMIN level.
Chapter 3: Operations 37 Port History Mode Commands Command Description B ottom B sets the view location to the bottom of the fi le minus 23 history display lines, if available.
