Local Console Access
Your user account can be configured with one user login name and different
passwords for accessing a CLI session. The DSL router ships with the local
console enabled. After login, the local console can be disabled .
To disable with the local console, type:
console disable
save
exit
Press Enter after each command that you type.
Entering console disable results in NO local access to the DSL router. If
you attempt to log in, you will receive an error message.
After saving this change and ending the session, there is no loca l access
through the console port. Any access must be through a Telnet session or
the NMS.
To determine via a Telnet session whether a console is enabled, enter:
show console
One of the following messages is returned:
—console enabled – Command line management is available at the
console.
—console disabled – No command line management is available at the
console.
