Local Console Access
The DSL router ships with the local console enabled. After login, the local console

. After saving this change
and ending the session, there is no local access through the console port. Any
access must be through a Telnet session or the NMS.

results in NO local access to the DSL router.
If you attempt to log in, you will receive an error message.
To determine via a Telnet session if a console is enabled, enter:
show console
The display returned for the show console command will be:
H
console enabled
– Command line management at the console is
available, or

console disabled
– No command line management is available at the
console.
