Linux Console

The AlphaCom E runs a [Linux] distribution from MontaVista, kernel version 2.4.<br\> Linux uses a command line interface (CLI).

When do I need to use the Linux Console?

• Ping devices on the network
• File image update
• Access to the file system

The Linux Console can be accessed on two ways:

• Via the ethernet port using ”telnet”
• Via serial port 1

Linux Console - Telnet

Start the Windows command line

Type telnet <AMC IP-adress>

Username: alpha
Password: com
The Telnet port (23) is by default disabled in the firewall
