IPv6 Telnet

Telnet sessions can be established between an Extreme device to a remote IPv6 host, and from a remote IPv6 host to the device using IPv6 addresses.

Use the telnet command to establish a Telnet connection from an Extreme device to a remote IPv6 host using the console. For example:

device# telnet 2001:DB8:3de2:c37::6

Up to five read-access Telnet sessions are supported on the router at one time. Write-access through Telnet is limited to one session. Only one outgoing Telnet session is supported on the router at a time.

Use the show telnet server status command to view the status of the Telnet sever.

For more information about the commands, including examples, see the Extreme SLX-OS Command Reference.
