System Connectivity Configuration Fields
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| HTTP Admin Mode | Enables or disables the HTTP administrative mode. When this mode is enabled, the device management interface can be accessed through a web browser using the HTTP protocol. |
| Telnet Server Admin Mode | Enables or disables the Telnet administrative mode. When this mode is enabled, the device CLI can be accessed through the telnet port. Disabling this mode disconnects all existing telnet connections and shuts down the telnet port in the device. |
| Telnet—Allow New Sessions | Enables or disables new Telnet sessions. When this option is disabled, the system does not accept any new telnet sessions, but existing telnet sessions are unaffected. |
| Outbound Telnet—Allow New Sessions | Enables or disables new outbound telnet sessions. When this option is disabled, initiating telnet sessions from the system is not allowed. |
| HTTPS Admin Mode | Enables or disables the administrative mode of secure HTTP. When this mode is enabled, the device management interface can be accessed through a web browser using the HTTPS protocol. |
| SSH Admin Mode | Enables or disables the administrative mode of SSH. When this mode is disabled, all existing SSH connections remain connected until timed-out or logged out, but new SSH connections cannot be established. |
If you change any of the parameters, click Submit to apply the changes to the system. If you want the switch to retain the new values across a power cycle, you must save the configuration.
