Overview
You can configure the source IP address for Telnet service packets for an S3600 switch operating as a
Telnet client. The IP address can only be the IP address of a Layer 3 interface on the switch.
Figure 7-1 Specify source IP address for Telnet service packets
As shown in
, suppose you are going to telnet to Switch B from PC. If devices in the segment
192.168.1.0/24 are not allowed to telnet to Switch B, you can log in to Switch A (an S3600 Ethernet
switch) first, configure the source IP address of the Telnet service packets on Switch A as 192.168.2.5,
and then log in to Switch B through Switch A.
Configuring Source IP Address for Telnet Service Packets
The feature of configuring source IP address for Telnet service packets can be configured in either user
view or system view.
The configuration performed in user view takes effect for only the current session
The configuration performed in system view takes effect for all the following sessions. That is, when a
switch telnets to a remote device, it automatically uses the configured source IP address or source
interface to encapsulate Telnet service packets.
