Telnet requires a valid username and password for access to the switch.
Telnet Login Timers
After the username prompt is displayed, MSS allows 30 seconds to enter a valid username
and password to complete the login. If you do not press Enter or complete the login before
the timer expires, MSS ends the session. This timer is not congurable.
Enabling Telnet
Telnet is disabled by default. To enable Telnet, use the following command:
set ip telnet server {enable | disable}
Adding a Telnet User
To log in with Telnet, a user must supply a valid username and password. To add a username
and password to the local database, use the following command:

Optionally, you also can congure MSS either to locally authenticate the user or to use a
RADIUS server to authenticate the user. Use the following command:
set authentication admin {user-glob} method1 [method2] [method3] [method4]
You can use the same username and password for SSH or create a new one. For a CLI
example, see
