Note:
There are a maximum of four concurrent Telnet sessions over the management and data
ports combined.
4. Configure the default port type for each management function.
Select the management port or the default data port for each management function. For
example, select the management port for NTP, RADIUS, and syslog functions only. SMTP, TFTP,
and SNMP traps are configured to use the default data ports.
Note:
The default for TFTP can be overridden by using the –data or –mgmt option after a
gtimg, ptimg, gtcfg, ptcfg, or ptdmp command.
5. Apply, verify your configuration, and save the changes.
Limiting Management Access
In a standalone appliance, you can disable access to a management service from a data port using
one of the commands as described in Table 1:
ADC-VX supports virtual ADC (vADC) management access through VLANs. Unlike standalone
appliances, a vADC does not necessarily own the entire physical port and can share it with other
applications or services. To accommodate such a design, the data port management access for
vADCs is supported by VLAN IDs and not by physical ports.
Table 2 lists the commands that can be used to limit management services from VLANs:
>> Management Port# ena
(Enable the management port)
>> Management Port# ntp mgmt
(Select the management port for NTP)
>> Management Port# radius mgmt
(Select the management port for
RADIUS)
>> Management Port# syslog mgmt
(Select the management port for syslog)
>> Management Port # apply
(Make your changes active)
>> Management Port # cur
(View current settings)
>> Management Port # save
(Save for restore after reboot)
