Terminal Lines
You can access the system remotely and restrict access to the system by creating user profiles. The terminal 
lines on the system provide different means of accessing the system. The virtual terminal lines (VTY) 
connect you through Telnet to the system.
Deny and Permit Access to a Terminal Line
Dell Force10 recommends applying only standard access control lists (ACLs) to deny and permit access to 
VTY lines. 
• Layer 3 ACL deny all traffic that is not explicitly permitted, but in the case of VTY lines, an ACL with 
no rules does not deny any traffic.
• You cannot use the 
show ip accounting access-list command to display the contents of an ACL that is 
applied only to a VTY line.
To apply an IP ACL to a line:
To view the configuration, enter the 
show config command in LINE mode (Figure 4-5).
