Configuring
a Router for a Sensor Telnet Session
First, we will configure the router for Telnet access and
assign a login password. The login password is essential for allowing us to
Telnet to a router and should be something complex and easy for us to remember.
Password security is very important and we will need to use this password when
configuring our sensors.
Router>enable
Router#configure terminal
Router#line vty 0 4
Router#login password syngress
Router#exit
!
Now we will set an enable password for the security of remote
configuration changes:
Router#enable password Syngress
Router#^Z #This is actually ctrl+z
Router#write memory
Building Configuration…
[OK]
Router#
At this point, we can exit out of the router or type show running-config and view our configuration. Our interest in a
show run would be an enable password at the start of the configuration and a vty
login at the bottom. It should look somewhat similar to this:
Router# show running-config
Building configuration…
Current configuration : 2350 bytes

end
