The documentation you refer to assumes you understand telnet. From the words, "Each emulator instance provides a control console the you can connect to" and "connect to the console of the target emulator instance,", the author expects you to be able to figure out that it does not matter where you connect from: you can use any console/ command window on your system that is capable of talking to the same host (localhost) at port 5554.
Only once you have established this connection do you use the 'redir' command, which being typed in the telnet window, is going to the control console on the emulator instance itself (i.e. on the emulated phone).
