Example:

The V-Switch is named V-Switch 1 at 13:30 in the afternoon on 21 March 2002. Its management port, eth1, has the IP address 212.199.43.46. Anna Levin, at phone extension 4838 is the contact person in the event of technical difficulties.

device set –n VSwitch1 –ip 212.199.43.46 –d 21/04/2004 – t 13:30 –c AnnaLevin. –loc ext4838 –if eth1

Telnet Port

If your Telnet communications connection to the V-Switch traverses a firewall, the standard Telnet communications port 23 may be blocked by the firewall as a security measure. To enable Telnet communications to the V-Switch, you can designate an alternate port using the CLI command device set -telnet. This port can be opened in the firewall for dedicated Telnet-V-Switch communications.

device set -telnet

Example:

The port 1597 is programmed as the Telnet communications port.

device set -telnet 1597

Use the CLI command info to check the V-Switch’s designated Telnet port.
