Configuring Telnet login

You can Telnet to the device to remotely manage the device, or use the device as a Telnet client to Telnet
to other devices to manage them.
By default, Telnet login is disabled on the device. To log in to the device through Telnet, you must perform
the following tasks:
• Log in to the device through any other method.
Enable the Telnet server.
•
Configure Telnet login authentication.
•
NOTE:
Telnet login is not supported in FIPS mode.

Remarks
By default, the terminal display type is
ANSI.
The device supports two terminal display
types: ANSI and VT100. HP recommends
that you set the display type to VT100 on
both the device and the configuration
terminal. If either side uses the ANSI type,
a display problem such as cursor
positioning error might occur when a
command line has more than 80
characters.
By default, a screen displays up to 24
lines.
To disable pausing between screens of
output, set the value to 0.
By default, the buffer saves up to 10 history
commands.
By default, the CLI connection idle-timeout
timer is 10 minutes.
If no interaction occurs between the device
and the user within the idle-timeout
interval, the system automatically
terminates the user connection on the user
line.
If you set the-timeout timer to 0, the
connection will not be aged out.
