Configuring basic system parameters
1
The commands in this example configure loopback interface 2, assign IP address 10.0.0.2/24 to
the interface, then designate the interface as the source for all Telnet packets from the Layer 3
Switch.
Syntax: ip telnet source-interface ethernet portnum | loopback num | ve num
The following commands configure an IP interface on an Ethernet port and designate the address
port as the source for all Telnet packets from the Layer 3 Switch.
Virtual ADX(config)# interface ethernet 1
Virtual ADX(config-if-1)# ip address 10.157.22.110/24
Virtual ADX(config-if-1)# exit
Virtual ADX(config)# ip telnet source-interface ethernet 1
Cancelling an outbound Telnet session
If you want to cancel a Telnet session from the console to a remote Telnet server (for example, if the
connection is frozen), you can terminate the Telnet session by doing the following.
1. At the console, press Ctrl-^ (Ctrl-Shift-6).
2. Press the X key to terminate the Telnet session.
Pressing Ctrl-^ twice in a row causes a single Ctrl-^ character to be sent to the Telnet server. After
you press Ctrl-^, pressing any key other than X or Ctrl-^ returns you to the Telnet session.
Configuring an interface as the source for all TFTP packets
You can configure the device to use the lowest-numbered IP address configured on a loopback
interface, virtual routing interface, Ethernet portas the source for all TFTP packets from the device.
The software uses the lowest-numbered IP address configured on the interface as the source IP
address for the packets.
For example, to specify the lowest-numbered IP address configured on a virtual routing interface as
the device’s source for all TFTP packets, enter commands such as the following.
Virtual ADX(config)# int ve 1
Virtual ADX(config-vif-1)# ip address 10.0.0.3/24
Virtual ADX(config-vif-1)# exit
Virtual ADX(config)# ip tftp source-interface ve 1
The commands in this example configure virtual routing interface 1, assign IP address 10.0.0.3/24
to the interface, then designate the interface's address as the source address for all TFTP packets
Syntax: [no] ip tftp source-interface ethernet portnum | loopback num | ve num
The default is the lowest-numbered IP address configured on the port through which the packet is
sent. The address therefore changes, by default, depending on the port.
Configuring CLI banners
Brocade devices can be configured to display a greeting message on users’ terminals when they
enter the Privileged EXEC CLI level or access the device through Telnet. In addition, a Brocade
device can display a message on the Console when an incoming Telnet CLI session is detected.
