Nortel Networks 450 manual Logout, Password Prompt Screen

Using the Console Interface

Logout

The Logout option (accessed from the main menu) allows a user working at a password-protected console terminal or in an active TELNET session to terminate the session.

The Logout option works as follows:

•If the user is accessing the BayStack 450 switch through a TELNET session, the Logout option terminates the TELNET session.

•If the user is accessing the BayStack 450 switch through a password-protected console terminal (connected to the console/comm port on the switch), the Logout option displays the console-terminal password prompt (Figure 3-43). The user must enter the correct password to access the CI screens.

Enter Password:

Figure 3-43. Password Prompt Screen

You can specify whether a password is required for the TELNET session or the console terminal using the Console/Comm Port Configuration screen (see

“ Console/Comm Port Configuration” on page 3-58).

If the console terminal is not password protected, the system ignores the Logout option.
