Telnet access
Telnet is a TCP/IP service that allows remote terminals to access

Caution! You should consider restricting Telnet access to the Netopia Router
if you suspect there is a chance of tampering.
To restrict Telnet access, select Security in the Main Menu and go
to the Security Options screen. There are two levels of Telnet
restriction available:
To restrict Telnet access to the SNMP screens, select Deny Telnet
Access to SNMP Screens and toggle it to Yes. (See
“SNMP traps”
on page 9-20. )
To restrict Telnet access to all of the configuration screens, select
Block Telnet Console Access and toggle it to Yes.
