what fabric OS ? On 6.x you can do this:

To disable telnet:

ipfilter --create block_telnet_v4 --type ipv4

ipfilter --addrule block_telnet_v4 -rule 2 -sip any -dp 23 -proto tcp -act deny

ipfilter --save block_telnet_v4

ipfilter --activate block_telnet_v4

To re-enable telnet:

ipfilter --delete block_telnet_v4

ipfilter --save


...to do ssh ..change port 23 to 22.

i read the admin guide, but wasnt' able to find anything except using ipfilter to filter out either telnet or ssh, but is there a way to natively enable/disable either protocol?

i think it has admin rights, because that's the same account i use to do zoning and the new policy i just created, which blocked me out

ok, i found the answer to my previous question is yes, i locked myself out, i can connect to console though, but when i try to delete the new rule i just created, it says,

Not owner of the current transaction

help!

what commands are you using to remove the rule ?

the account you are using on the console ..does it have admin role ?

you might also try:

ipfilter ¿-transabort

what if you simply run "ipfilter --save"

so ipfilter is the only way? bummer

anyhow, do i have to create another rule to state any other traffic is allowed?
