Special security features

Special security features allow you to enable and disable the recovery password, establish
incoming and outgoing telnet connections, copy gateway configurations while keeping
configuration secrets, and configure SYN cookies for preventing SYN attacks.

Enabling and disabling recovery password

The G250/G350 includes a special recovery password. The purpose of the recovery password
is to enable the system administrator to access the G250/G350 in the event that the regular
password is forgotten. You can only use the recovery password when accessing the
G250/G350 via a direct connection to the Console port or Services port.
Use the set terminal recovery password command to enable or disable the recovery
password. Use this command only when accessing the G250/G350 via a direct connection to
the Console port or Services port.
