5.5.2 TELNET
The Telnet protocol is often thought of simply as a provider for remote logins to computer via the
Internet. This was its original purpose although it can be used for many other purposes.
It is best understood in the context of a user with a local computer accessing the local telnet program
(known as the client program) to run a login session on a remote computer where his communication
needs are handled by a telnet server program running on the remote computer. It should be
emphasized that the telnet server can pass on the data it has received from the client to many other
types of processes including a remote login server.
A user can telnet a remote host (Computer or switch) from the LE2425A or LEV2525A.
syntax : telnet <ipaddress> [ port =<port number>]
E.g . telnet 192.168.1.1 [port is optional]. The default port is 23.
We also have the Telnet Client on the LE2425A and LEV2525A. Users can telnet the LE2425A and
LEV2525A from the host (Computer or switch) remotely. In other words users can manage the switch
remotely.
Note : (i) we have to have an IP configuration on the switch before starting the telnet
session.
(ii) Once the Telnet session starts, the serial connection will be inactive.
(iii) In the default configuration, inbound and outbound Telnet access is enabled.
To disable or enable Telnet access:
Syntax : telnet <enable/disable>
LE2425A (access) ## telnet disable
Disabling Access to Telnet
LE2425A (access) ## telnet enable
Enabling Access to Telnet
