Configuring the Maximum Number of Telnet Management Sessions

This section describes how to control the maximum number of Telnet sessions allowed for each context.
Telnet remote access sessions are established on the ACE per context. You can create a context, assign
an interface and IP address to it, and then log into the ACE by using Telnet to connect to that IP address.
This capability allows you to specify a particular context when accessing the ACE. For details on
creating users and contexts, see the Cisco 4700 Series Application Control Engine Appliance
Virtualization Configuration Guide.
Restrictions
The ACE supports a total maximum of 256 concurrent Telnet sessions. The ACE supports a maximum
16 concurrent Telnet management sessions for the Admin context and 4 concurrent Telnet management
sessions for each user context.
