DESCRIPTION
Services
Services you may use to access the Switch are listed here.
Active
Select this option for the corresponding services that you want to allow to access the Switch.
Service Port
For Telnet, SSH, FTP, HTTP or HTTPS services, you may change the default service port by typing
the new port number in the
Service Port
field. If you change the default port number then you
will have to let people (who wish to use the service) know the new port number for that
service.
Timeout
Type how many minutes (from 1 to 255) a management session can be left idle before the
session times out. After it times out you have to log in with your password again. Very long idle
timeouts may have security risks.
Note: The timeout period you specified for Telnet sessions also applies to SSH
sessions. Likewise, the HTTP and HTTPS sessions are set to use the same timeout
value.
Login Timeout
Type how many seconds (from 30 to 300) the Switch waits before stopping a “trusted”
computer’s failed attempt to log in and access the Switch.
Note: The login timeout period you specified for Telnet sessions also applies to SSH
sessions.
Apply
Click
Apply
to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses these
changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the
Save
link on the top navigation panel to
save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.
Cancel
Click
Cancel
to begin configuring this screen afresh.
