5.3 Logging in to Devices Using Telnet
When multiple routers need to be configured and managed, there is no need to maintain each
router locally. Instead, you can use Telnet to log in to the routers remotely to perform
maintenance. This greatly facilitates device management.
5.3.1 Establishing the Configuration Task
Before configuring user login using Telnet, familiarize yourself with the applicable environment,
complete the pre-configuration tasks, and obtain any data required for configuration. This will
help you complete the configuration task quickly and correctly.
Applicable Environment
If you know the IP address of a remote router, you can use Telnet to log in to the router from a
local terminal. Telnet login allows you to maintain multiple remote routers from one local
terminal, greatly facilitating device management.
Note that router IP addresses must be preset through console ports.
Pre-configuration Tasks
Before configuring users to log in using Telnet, you must log in to the device through the console
port to change the default configurations on the device, so that users can remotely log in to the
device using Telnet to manage and maintain the device. The following default configurations
must be changed:
l Configuring the IP address of the management network port on the device and ensuring
that a reachable route exists between the user terminal and the device
l 5.3.2 Configuring the User Access Level and User Authentication Mode of the VTY
User Interface for remote device management and maintenance
l 5.3.3 Enabling the Telnet Service so that users can remotely log in to the device through
Telnet
Data Preparation
