Conﬁguring and Managing Telnet Servers

Reassigning a Port

This process allows you to manage a failed access server port that is conﬁgured as

a Telnet listener. Use the following steps to reassign a port:

3 Disable the port as follows (substitute your listener TCP port for 2005 and

the listener physical port for 5):

Local> CHANGE TELNET LISTENER 2005 PORT 5 DISABLED

4 Enable the Telnet listener. The following shows how to enable connections

to internet port 2005:

Local> SET TELNET LISTEN 2005 CONNECTIONS ENABLED

Step Action

1 Use the LIST PORT n CHARACTERISTICS command to learn the values

used in the existing conﬁguration.

2 Disconnect the device from the port.

3 Select a new port and reattach the device at the new port.

4 Set the new port’s values to those of the existing port. If the values are

unavailable, you need to conﬁgure the device as described in Chapter 4.

5 Enable the Telnet listener on this port and disable the Telnet listener on the

original port.
