Configuring Telnet Settings

Use the System > Telnet menu to configure parameters for accessing the CLI over a Telnet
connection. You can access the onboard configuration program over the network using Telnet (i.e.,
a virtual terminal). Management access via Telnet can be enabled/disabled and other parameters
set, including the TCP port number, time outs, and a password. Note that the password is only
configurable through the CLI.) These parameters can be configured via the web or CLI interface.
