User Interface
Configuration
Tasks for configuring the user interface are described in the following sections:
â– Entering User Interface View
â– Configuring the User Interface-Supported Protocol
â– Configuring the Attributes of AUX (Console) Port
â– Configuring the Terminal Attributes
â– Managing Users
â– Configuring Redirection
Entering User Interface View
Use the user-interface command to enter a User Interface View. You can enter
a single User Interface View or multi User Interface View to configure one or more
user interfaces respectively.
Perform the following configuration in System View.
Configuring the User Interface-Supported Protocol
The following command is used for setting the supported protocol by the current
user interface. You can log in to the Switch only through the supported protocol.
The configuration becomes effective when you log in again.
Perform the following configurations in User Interface (VTY user interface only)
View.
By default, the user interface supports Telnet and SSH protocols.
If the Telnet protocol is specified, to ensure a successful login through Telnet, you
must configure the password by default.
If SSH protocol is specified, to ensure a successful login, you must configure the
local or remote authentication of username and password using the
authentication-mode scheme command. The protocol inbound ssh
configuration fails if you configure authentication-mode password and
authentication-mode none. When you configure SSH protocol successfully for
the user interface, then you cannot configure
authentication-mode password
and
authentication-mode none any more.
Configuring the Attributes of AUX (Console) Port
Use the speed, flow control, parity, stop bit, and data bit commands to
configure these attributes of the AUX (console) port.
