Configuration | System | Management Protocols | Telnet
This screen lets you configure and enable the VPN 3002 Telnet terminal emulation server, and Telnet
over SSL (Secure Sockets Layer protocol). When the server is enabled, you can use a Telnet client to
communicate with the VPN 3002. You can fully manage and administer the VPN 3002 using the Cisco
Command Line Interface (CLI) via Telnet.
Telnet server login usernames and passwords are the same as those enabled and configured on the
Administration | Access Rights | Administrators screens.
Telnet/SSL uses a secure, encrypted connection. This enabled by default for Telnet/SSL clients.
See the Configuration | System | Management Protocols | SSL screen to configure SSL parameters. See
the Administration | Certificate Management | Certificates screen to manage the SSL digital certificate.

Enable Telnet
Check the box to enable the Telnet server. The box is checked by default. Disabling the Telnet server
provides additional security, but doing so prevents using the Cisco CLI via Telnet.
