3.2 Incoming Logins
3.2.1 Controlling Incoming Logins
Incoming Telnet logins are enabled by default, and incoming LAT logins are disabled. This behavior can be changed with the Change Incoming command and one of the following parameters:
Telnet | Enables Telnet logins |
LAT | Enables LAT logins |
Both | Enables both Telnet and LAT logins |
