Configuration example

Configuring Telnet service
# Enter system view.
<Sysname> system-view
# Enable the Telnet server.
[Sysname] telnet server enable
# Enter the view of user line VTY 0.
[Sysname] user-interface vty 0
# Enable password authentication on the user line.
[Sysname-ui-vty0] authentication-mode password
# Set the password to hello in plaintext.
[Sysname-ui-vty0] set authentication password simple hello
# Assign user role network-admin through the user line VTY 0.
[Sysname-ui-vty0] user-role network-admin
[Sysname-ui-vty0] quit

Configure IP addresses
•
# Create VLAN-interface 1.
[Sysname] interface vlan-interface 1
# Assign an IP address, for example, 192.168.0.1, to VLAN-interface 1.
[Sysname-Vlan-interface1] ip address 192.168.0.1 24
[Sysname-Vlan-interface1] quit
