5) Enter the password when the Telnet window displays "Login authentication" and
prompts for login password. The CLI prompt (such as <H3C>) appears if the
password is correct. If all VTY user interfaces of the switch are in use, you will fail
to establish the connection and receive the message that says "All user interfaces
are used, please try later!". A H3C series Ethernet switch can accommodate up to
five Telnet connections at the same time.
6) After successfully Telneting to a switch, you can configure the switch or display the
information about the switch by executing corresponding commands. You can
also type ? at any time for help. Refer to the following chapters for the information
about the commands.
Note:
A Telnet connection is terminated if you delete or modify the IP address of the VLAN
interface in the Telnet session.
By default, commands of level 0 are available to Telnet users authenticated by
password. Refer to the Command Hierarchy/Command View section in Command
Line Interface module for information about command hierarchy.

3.5.2 Telneting to Another Switch from the Current Switch

You can Telnet to another switch from the current switch. In this case, the current switch
operates as the Telnet client, and the other operates as the Telnet server. If the
interconnected Ethernet ports of the two switches are in the same LAN segment, make
sure the IP addresses of the two management VLAN interfaces to which the two
Ethernet ports belong to are of the same network segment, or the route between the
two VLAN interfaces is available.
As shown in
Telnet to another switch (labeled as Telnet server) by executing the telnet command
and then to configure the later.
