Telnet server

To allow Telnet TCP/IP connections to an OS10 switch, enable the Telnet server. The OS10 Telnet server uses the Debian telnetd package. By default, the Telnet server is disabled.

When you enable the Telnet server, connect to the switch using the IP address configured on the management or any front-panel port. The Telnet server configuration is persistent and is maintained after you reload the switch. To verify the Telnet server configuration, enter the show running-configuration command.

NOTE: Dell Technologies recommends using SSH for secure, encrypted connections to the switch. SSH is enabled by default. To set up SSH connections, see SSH server.

Enable the Telnet server

OS10(config)# ip telnet server enable

Disable the Telnet server

OS10(config)# no ip telnet server enable

By default, the Telnet server is reachable on the default virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) instance if the Telnet server is enabled. To configure the Telnet server to be reachable on the management VRF, use the ip telnet server vrf management command. To configure the Tellnet server to be reachable on a non-default VRF instance, use the ip telnet server vrf vrf-name command.

Configure a Telnet server on the management VRF
OS10(config)# ip telnet server vrf management
