DISCONNECTING A TELNET SESSION
The administrator-level account can disconnect a management session that has been
established by way of a Telnet connection. If this happens, the user logged in by way of
the Telnet connection is notiÞed that the session has been terminated.
To terminate a Telnet session, follow these steps:
1 Log in to the Switch with administrator privileges.
2 Determine the session number of the session you want to terminate by typing
show session
Sample output from the show session command is as follows:
show session:
0 Wed Sep 17 20:48:38 1997 admin console serial
4 Wed Sep 17 21:52:16 1997 admin telnet 192.208.37.26
3 Terminate the session by using the following command:
clear session <session_number>
DISABLING TELNET ACCESS
By default, Telnet services are enabled on the Switch. You can choose to disable Telnet
by entering
disable telnet
To re-enable Telnet on the Switch, at the console port enter
enable telnet
You must be logged in as an administrator to enable or disable Telnet.
USING THE WEB INTERFACE
Any properly conÞgured standard Web browser that supports frames (such as Netscape
Navigator 3.0 or Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0) can manage the Switch over a TCP/IP
network. To use the Web interface, at least one VLAN on the Switch must be assigned
an IP address.
