Default • Telnet-enabled • Virtual router-Uses all virtual routers on the switch for outgoing Telnet requests • Port-23 Usage Guidelines Only VT100 emulation is supported. Before you can start an outgoing Telnet session, you need to configure the switch IP parameters. To open a Telnet connection, you must specify the host IP address or the host name of the device you want to connect to. Check the user manual supplied with the Telnet facility if you are unsure of how to do this. Although the switch accepts IPv6 connections, you can only Telnet from the switch to another device with an IPv4 address. You must configure DNS in order to use the host_name option. Host Name and Remote IP Address Character Restrictions This section provides information about the characters supported by the switch for host names and remote IP addresses. When specifying a host name or remote IP address, the switch permits only the following characters: • Alphabetical letters, upper case and lower case (A-Z, a-z) • Numerals (0-9) • Period ( . ) Chapter 3.
