About the Telnet Interface
This section discusses the Telnet interface of the SCE platform. A Telnet session is the most common
way to connect to the SCE platform CLI interface.
You can set the following parameters for the Telnet interface:
• Enable/disable the interface
• Timeout for Telnet sessions, that is, if there is no activity on the session, how long the SCE platform
waits before automatically cutting off the Telnet connection.
The following commands are relevant to Telnet interface:
• line vty
• [no] access list
• [no] service telnetd
• [no] timeout
• show line vty timeout
How to Prevent Telnet Access
Use this command to disable access by Telnet altogether.
Step 1 From the SCE(config)# prompt, type no service telnetd and press Enter.
Current Telnet sessions are not disconnected, but no new Telnet sessions are allowed.
How to Configure the Telnet Timeout
The SCE platform supports timeout of inactive Telnet sessions.
Options
The following options are available:
• timeout — The length of time in minutes before an inactive Telnet session will be timed-out.

Default — 30 minutes
Step 1 From the SCE(config-line)# prompt, type timeout timeout , and press Enter.
