Configuring the Management Station 77
Configuring the Backspace Key For Telnet Sessions
Depending on the Telnet client, using the <Backspace> key may produce
unexpected results. For example, the session may echo ^h. However,
most Microsoft and Linux Telnet clients can be configured to use the
<Backspace> key.
To configure Microsoft Telnet clients to use the <Backspace> key,
perform the following steps:
1
Open a command prompt window (if required).
2
If you are not running a Telnet session, enter:
telnet
If you are running a Telnet session, press <Ctrl><]>.
3
At the prompt, enter:
set bsasdel
The following message appears:
Backspace will be sent as delete.
To configure a Linux Telnet session to use the <Backspace> key, perform the
following steps:
1
Open a shell and enter:
stty erase ^h
2
At the prompt, enter:
telnet
SSH With iDRAC6
Secure Shell (SSH) is a command line connection with the same capabilities
as a Telnet session, but with session negotiation and encryption to improve
security. iDRAC6 supports SSH version 2 with password authentication.
SSH is enabled by default on iDRAC6.
You can use free programs like PuTTY or OpenSSH on a management
station to connect to the managed server’s iDRAC6. When an error occurs
during the login procedure, the SSH client issues an error message.
The message text is dependent on the client and is not controlled
by iDRAC6.
