17.2 Access Control Overview

A console port access control session and Telnet access control session cannot coexist. The console port has higher

priority. If you telnet to the switch and someone is already logged in from the console port, then you will see
the following message.

Figure 17-2 Console Port Priority

A console port or Telnet session can coexist with one FTP session, up to five Web sessions (five different

usernames and passwords) and/or limitless SNMP access control sessions.
