service provider’s troubleshooting (TS) management link.

Telnet access can be limited by:
„
Disabling Telnet access completely.
„
Requiring a login for Telnet sessions that are not on the TS Access
Management Link.
„
Assigning an access level for Telnet sessions.
„
Disabling TS Access Management Link access.
To limit Telnet access via a service provider’s troubleshooting management link,

a Level-2 user).
