NOTE: The device allows 120 Telnet sessions per minute, allowing the login and logout of 10 Telnet sessions, 12 times in a
minute. If the system reaches this non-practical limit, the Telnet service is stopped for 10 minutes. You can use console

Enter an IPv6 address in the format 0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000. Elision of zeros is supported.
