Limiting Telnet Access

Telnet access can be limited by:

HDisabling Telnet access completely.

HRequiring a login for Telnet sessions that are not on the TS Management Link.

HAssigning an access level for Telnet sessions.

HDisabling TS Management Link access.

To limit Telnet access via a service provider's troubleshooting management link, see Limiting Telnet or FTP Access Over the TS Management Link.

"Procedure

To limit Telnet access when the session is not on the TS Management Link:

1. Select the Telnet and FTP Session options.

Assign an access level

Session Access Level to Level-2 or Level-3.

NOTE: Regardless of a user's login access level, a user cannot operate at a level higher than the access level specified for the Telnet session (e.g., if a user has a Level-1 login and Level-2 telnet access has been set, the Level-1 user can only operate as a Level-2 user).

If you are going to allow users to configure the unit, keep the access at Level-1.
