set rtelnet
Syntax SET RTELnet AUthentication={OFf|ON|NO|YEs|FAlse|TRue}
Description This command determines whether users who connect to an asynchronous
port through reverse Telnet must log in and be authenticated. If the device that
is connected to the asynchronous port also requires authentication, then
turning authentication off on the reverse Telnet connection stops users from
having to log in twice.
The authentication parameter specifies whether the router or switch
authenticates reverse Telnet connections. If you specify on, users must log in to
establish a reverse Telnet session. The router or switch only establishes the
session if the supplied username and password are valid. If you specify off,
users do not have to log in. The values on, yes and true are equivalent. The
values off, no and false are equivalent. The default is on.
Example To establish reverse Telnet sessions without authenticating user information,
use the command:
set rtel au=of
