Telnet CLI
The Internet Gate has a powerful Command Line Interface, accessible through Telnet, allowing advanced users make complex configurations not possible using the web GUI.

By default Internet Gate's firewall stops all attempts of connecting to the Telnet CLI. Before you can use the CLI you must enable Telnet access:
- for remote (WAN/Internet) access enable Remote configuration (Telnet) on security profile
- for local (LAN) access enable Administration (Telnet) on security profile
Login
Log in to Telnet CLI by opening a telnet connection to one of Internet Gate's addresses: telnet 192.168.0.1
Username is admin and password is the same as admin's password for access of the web GUI.
