5.3.2 Telnet Connection
Telnet access provides the same options for user and administrator access as those
available through the Console port. You can access the switch with a Telnet
connection from a PC or workstation connected to the network once the following
conditions are met:
• the switch has successfully initialized
• an in-band management interface has been configured using the CLI
You can configure an in-band management interface by configuring an IP interface
on one of the ports configured in network mode.
The following is a sample configuration for configuring an in-band management IP
interface:
*A:7210SAS>config>router>info
interface "in-band-mgmt" create
address 10.10.10.25/24
port 1/1/24
exit
*A:7210SAS>config>router>
To configure the 7210 SAS-M for Telnet access, you must have a device with Telnet
client software. The 7210 SAS-M must have a management IP interface configured
with an IP address. Before using the telnet client access you must enable telnet
server on the 7210 SAS-M by using the CLI command:
*A: 7210SAS# configure system security telnet-server.
Each 7210 SAS-M is limited to a total of seven inbound/outbound Telnet or SSH
sessions to guarantee that either inbound or outbound sessions will be available.
MAC addresses are listed on a small label on the chassis. The MAC address also
displays in the show router arp command output.
