Chapter 3 Logging in Through Telnet
3.1 Introduction
You can telnet to a remote switch to manage and maintain the switch. To achieve this,
you need to configure both the switch and the Telnet terminal properly.
Table 3-1 Requirements for Telnet to a switch
Item Requirement
Start the Telnet Server
The IP address of the VLAN of the switch is configured and the
route between the switch and the Telnet terminal is available.
(Refer to the module “IP Addressing and Performance” and “IP
Routing” for more.)
Switch
The authentication mode and other settings are configured.
Refer to
Table 3-2 and Table 3-3 .
Telnet is running.
Telnet terminal
The IP address of the management VLAN of the switch is
available.
Note:
z
After you log into the switch through Telnet, you can issue commands to the switch
by way of pasting session text, which cannot exceed 2000 bytes, and the pasted
commands must be in the same view; otherwise, the switch may not execute the
commands correctly.
z
If the session text exceeds 2000 bytes, you can save it in a configuration file, upload
the configuration file to the switch and reboot the switch with this configuration file.
For details, refer to the File System Management part of the manual.
z
The way to log into a switch using Telnet based on IPv6 is the same as that based
on IPv4.
