2.2 Setting up Configuration Environment through Telnet

2.2.1 Connecting a PC to the Switch through Telnet

After you have correctly configured IP address of a VLAN interface for a switch via

Console port (using ip address command in VLAN interface view), and added the port

(that connects to a terminal) to this VLAN (using port command in VLAN view), you can

telnet this switch and configure it.

Operation Manual – Getting Started

H3C S9500 Series Routing Switches Chapter 2 Logging in to Switch

Step 1: Before logging into the switch through telnet, you need to configure the Telnet

user name and password on the switch through the console port.

 Note:

By default, the password is required for authenticating the Telnet user to log in to the

switch. If a user logs in via the Telnet without password, he will see the prompt “Login

password has not been set !”.

Step 4: The terminal displays “Login authentication!” and prompts the user to input the

logon password. After you input the correct password, it displays the command line

prompt (such as <H3C>). If the prompt “All user interfaces are used, please try later!

The connection was closed by the remote host!” appears, it indicates that the maximum

number of Telnet users that can be accessed to the switch is reached at this moment. In

this case, please reconnect later. At most 5 Telnet users are allowed to log on to the

H3C series switches simultaneously.

Step 5: Use the corresponding commands to configure the switch or to monitor the

running state. Enter “?” to get the immediate help. For details of specific commands,

refer to the following chapters.

 Note:

z When configuring the switch via Telnet, do not modify the IP address of it unless

necessary, for the modification might cut the Telnet connection.

z By default, when a Telnet user passes the password authentication to log on to the

switch, he can access the commands at Level 0.

2.2.2 Accessing a Switch through another Switch via Telnet

After a user has logged in to a switch, he or she can configure another switch through

the switch via Telnet. The local switch serves as Telnet client and the peer switch

serves as Telnet server. If the ports connecting these two switches are in a same local

network, their IP addresses must be configured in the same network segment.

Otherwise, the two switches must establish a route that can reach each other.

As shown in the figure below, after you telnet to a switch, you can run telnet command

to log in and configure another switch.

H3C S9500 Series Routing Switches Chapter 3 Command Line Interface

3-1

Chapter 3 Command Line Interface

3.1 Command Line Interface

H3C series switches provide a series of configuration commands and command line

interfaces for configuring and managing the switch. The command line interface has

the following characteristics:

z Local configuration via the Console port and AUX port.

z Local or remote configuration via Telnet.

z Remote configuration through dialing with modem via the AUX port.

z Hierarchy command protection to avoid the unauthorized users accessing switch.

z Enter a “?” to get immediate online help.

z Provide network testing commands, such as Tracert and Ping, to fast troubleshoot

the network.

z Provide various detailed debugging information to help with network

troubleshooting.

z Log in and manage other switch directly, using the Telnet command.

z Provide FTP service for the users to upload and download files.

z Provide the function similar to Doskey to execute a history command.

z The command line interpreter searches for target not fully matching the keywords.

It is ok for you to key in the whole keyword or part of it, as long as it is unique and

not ambiguous.

3.2 Command Line View

H3C series switches provide hierarchy protection for the command lines to avoid

unauthorized user accessing illegally.

Commands are classified into four levels, namely visit level, monitoring level,

configuration level and management level. They are introduced as follows:

z Visit level: Commands of this level involve command of network diagnosis tool

(such as ping and tracert), command of switch between different language

environments of user interface (language-mode) and telnet command etc. The

operation of saving configuration file is not allowed on this level of commands.

z Monitoring level: Commands of this level, including the display command and the

debugging command, are used to system maintenance, service fault diagnosis,

etc. The operation of saving configuration file is not allowed on this level of

commands.

z Configuration level: Service configuration commands, including routing command

and commands on each network layer, are used to provide direct network service

to the user.

Operation Manual – Getting Started

H3C S9500 Series Routing Switches Chapter 3 Command Line Interface

3-2

z Management level: They are commands that influence basis operation of the

system and system support module, which plays a support role on service.

Commands of this level involve file system commands, FTP commands, TFTP

commands, XModem downloading commands, user management commands,

and level setting commands.

At the same time, login users are classified into four levels that correspond to the four

command levels respectively. After users of different levels log in, they can only use

commands at the levels that are equal to or lower than its own level.

In order to prevent unauthorized users from illegal intrusion, user will be identified when

switching from a lower level to a higher level with super [ level ] command. User ID

authentication is performed when users at lower level switch to users at higher level. In

other words, user password of the higher level is needed (Suppose the user has set the

super password [ level level ] { simple | cipher } password.) For the sake of

confidentiality, on the screen the user cannot see the password that he entered. Only

when correct password is input for three times, can the user switch to the higher level.

Otherwise, the original user level will remain unchanged.

Different command views are implemented according to different requirements. They

are related to one another. For example, after logging in the switch, you will enter user

view, in which you can only use some basic functions such as displaying the running

state and statistics information. In user view, key in system-view to enter system view,

in which you can key in different configuration commands and enter the corresponding

views.

The command line provides the following views:

z User view

z System view

z Port view

z VLAN view

z VLAN interface view

z Local-user view

z User interface view

z FTP Client command view

z SFTP Client view

z MST region view
