Usage Guide:

This command is used when the switch is applied as Telnet client, for logging on remote host to

configure. When a switch is applied as a Telnet client, it can only establish one TCP connection with

the remote host. To connect to another remote host, the current TCP connection must be

disconnected with a hotkey “CTRL+ \”. To telnet a host name, mapping relationship between the

host name and the IP/IPv6 address should be previously configured. For required commands

please refer to ip host and ipv6 host. In case a host corresponds to both an IPv4 and an IPv6

addresses, the IPv6 should be preferred when telneting this host name.

Example:

The switch Telnets to a remote host whose IP address is 20.1.1.1.

Switch#telnet 20.1.1.1 23

Connecting Host 20.1.1.1 Port 23

Service port is 23

Connected to 20.1.1.1
