5.9.5 Telnet with CLI
A command‐line interface (CLI), also known as command‐line user interface, and console
user interface are means of interacting with a computer program where the user (or client) issues
commands to the program in the form of successive lines of text (command lines). The interface is
usually implemented with a command line shell, which is a program that accepts commands as
text input and converts commands to appropriate operating system functions. Programs with
command‐line interfaces are generally easier to automate via scripting. The device supports both
Telnet and SSH (Secure Shell) CLI with default service port 23 and 22, respectively.
In "Telnet with CLI" page, there are two configuration windows for the "Telnet with CLI" function.
The "Configuration" window can let you activate or deactivate the function to be made available for
telnetting via LAN and WAN interfaces. You can also specify the connection type in plain text Telnet or
secured text SSH or both and the corresponding service ports. The "Password Management" window
can let user manage the login password with "root" account, we strongly recommend you to change
the CLI login password for security considerations (The default login account is "root" and the default
login password is "m2mamit"). Click on "Save" to store your
changes.
