Disconnecting a
Telnet Session
For security purposes, an administrator access level account can
disconnect a management session that has been established by way of
a Telnet connection. If this happens, the user logged on by way of the
Telnet connection is notified that the session has been terminated.
To terminate a Telnet session, follow these steps:
1 Logon to the Switch with an administrator access level.
2 Determine the session number of the session you want to terminate by
typing
show session
