Enabling or Disabling the Telnet Server
This procedure explains how to enable or disable the Telnet server on
the switch. You might disable the server to prevent individuals from
managing the switch with the Telnet application protocol or if you
intend to use the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol.
Note
You cannot disable the Telnet server if there is an active Telnet
management session on the switch.
To enable or disable the Telnet server, do the following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, type 5 to select System Administration.
The System Administration menu is shown in Figure 7 on page 55.
2. From the System Administration menu, type 3 to select Console
(Serial/Telnet) Configuration.
The Console (Serial/Telnet) Configuration menu is shown in
Figure 12 on page 69.
3. Type 4 to toggle Telnet Server between Enabled and Disabled. The
default is enabled.
A change to the Telnet server is immediately activated on the
switch.
4. After making the change, type R until you return to the Main Menu.
Then type S to select Save Configuration Changes.
