Advanced Configuration And Modification Of The Management Ethernet Interface; Prerequisites For Configuring Management Ethernet Interfaces - Cisco NCS 5500 Series Configuration Manual

Advanced Configuration and Modification of the
Management Ethernet Interface
This module describes the configuration of Management Ethernet interfaces.
Before you can use Telnet to access the router through the LAN IP address, you must set up a Management
Ethernet interface and enable Telnet servers.
Note Although the Management Ethernet interfaces on the system are present by default, the user must configure
these interfaces to use them for accessing the router, using protocols and applications such as Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP), HTTP, extensible markup language (XML), TFTP, Telnet, and
command-line interface (CLI).
