1.
Telnet
– The Switch Module can be accessed remotely by use of a standard Telnet
session. By default Telnet is enabled.
2.
FTP
– File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is used primarily during the upgrade process. For
security reasons this feature is disabled on default. FTP should remain disabled when
not upgrading a unit or unless otherwise instructed to by a Customer Support
representative.
FTP should always be disabled when not performing a software upgrade or file transfer to
and from the units.
