5.4.2 Configuring VTY User Interface

To allow a user to log in to the router by using STelnet, configure attributes of the VTY user
interface.
Context
By default, the user authentication mode in the VTY user interface is password. Therefore, before
a user logs in to the router by using STelnet, the user authentication mode in the VTY user
interface must be set. Otherwise, the user cannot log in to the router.
You can log in to the router through a console port to set the user authentication mode in the
VTY user interface.
Other attributes of the VTY user interface in the router, such as terminal attributes and user
priorities, can also be set as needed. These attributes, however, generally do not need to be set
because they have default values.
For detailed settings, see

5.4.3 Configuring SSH for the VTY User Interface

users cannot log in to the router by using STelnet.
