2.2 Setting up Configuration Environment through Telnet

2.2.1 Connecting a PC to the Switch through Telnet
After you have correctly configured IP address of a VLAN interface for a switch via
Console port (using ip address command in VLAN interface view), and added the port
(that connects to a terminal) to this VLAN (using port command in VLAN view), you can
telnet this switch and configure it.
Step 1: Authenticate the Telnet user via the Console port before the user logs in by
Telnet.
Note:
By default, the password is required for authenticating the Telnet user to log in the
switch. If a user logs in via the Telnet without password, he will see the prompt "Login
password has not been set !".

Step 2: To set up the configuration environment, connect the Ethernet port of the PC to
that of the switch via the LAN.
