C H A P T E R 6 Remote Telnet Sessions

NOTE: If other remote sessions are already running and the new one exceeds the number allowed as configured with the set max_remote_sessions command, the CLI displays the message, “Max Remote Sesion Limit of (5) exceeded!” Either close a session, or increase the maximum number allowed.

Remote Console, Telnet

With remote Telnet enabled on the 7110/7115, use the following procedure to access it’s CLI:

Unix-prompt>telnet 10.1.1.1

Trying 10.1.1.1...

Connected to 10.1.1.1.

Escape character is ’^]’.

.

.

.

Serial 0:a0:a5:11:4:2e password:<password>

After you enter your password, the Telnet session displays the 7110/ 7115’s CLI. From this point, you can manage the device as you would from the local serial console, minus the few disallowed commands listed in the “Limitations” section near the beginning of this chapter.

Changing the Telnet Port

The Telnet port is set and displayed by using the CLI commands, set telnet_port <port> and show telnet_port.

These commands are available only at the local serial console and when the remote management is enabled. By default, the Telnet port number is 23.

To set the Telnet port:

Intel 7115> set telnet_port 230

To display the Telnet port:

Intel 7115> show telnet_port

Telnet Port Number: 230
