7. Telnet Management

Login to the Telnet configuration interface. Valid login name and password are
required, otherwise the Managed Switch will reject Telnet access. This is a method
to protect the Managed Switch from unauthorized access. As a result, when
Telnet is enabled for configuring and managing the Managed Switch, username
and password for authorized Telnet users must be configured with the following
command:

username privilege [password (0|7)
]

Privilege option must exist and just is 15. Assume an authorized user in the
Managed Switch has a username of “admin”, and password of “admin”, the
configuration procedure should like the following:

XGS3-24040>

enable

XGS3-24040# config
XGS3-24040(config)# username admin privilege 15 password 0 admin

Enter valid login name and password in the Telnet configuration interface, Telnet
user will be able to enter the Managed Switch’s CLI configuration interface. The
commands used in the Telnet CLI interface after login is the same as that in the
Console interface.
