Terminal Lines
You can access the system remotely and restrict access to the system by creating user proles.
Terminal lines on the system provide dierent means of accessing the system. The console line (console) connects you through the console
port in the route processor modules (RPMs). The virtual terminal lines (VTYs) connect you through a remote session to the system. The
auxiliary line (aux) connects secondary devices such as modems.
Denying and Permitting Access to a Terminal Line
Dell Networking recommends applying only standard access control lists (ACLs) to deny and permit access to VTY lines.
• Layer 3 ACLs deny all trac that is not explicitly permitted, but in the case of VTY lines, an ACL with no rules does not deny trac.
• You cannot use the show ip accounting access-list command to display the contents of an ACL that is applied only to a
VTY line.
To apply an IP ACL to a line, use the following command.
