Login management commands
The device supports the FIPS mode that complies with NIST FIPS 140-2 requirements. Support for features, commands, and parameters might differ in FIPS mode and non-FIPS mode. For more information about FIPS mode, see Security Configuration Guide.
Some login management commands are available in both user line view and user line class view. For these commands, the device uses the following rules to determine the settings to be activated:
· A setting in user line view applies only to the user line. A setting in user line class view applies to all user lines of the class.
· A non-default setting in either view takes precedence over a default setting in the other view. A non-default setting in user line view takes precedence over a non-default setting in user line class view.
· A setting in user line class view takes effect on login sessions that are established after the setting is configured.
activation-key
Use activation-key to set the terminal session activation key. Pressing this shortcut key starts a terminal session.
Use undo activation-key to restore the default.
Syntax
activation-key key-string
undo activation-key
Default
The terminal session activation key is Enter.
Views
User line view
User line class view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
key-string: Specifies a shortcut key. It can be a character (case sensitive), or an ASCII code value in the range of 0 to 127. For example, if you configure activation-key 1, the shortcut key is Ctrl+A. If you configure activation-key a, the shortcut key is a. For information about ASCII code values of individual characters, see the standard ASCII code chart. For information about ASCII code values of combined keys that use the Ctrl key, see Table 1.
Usage guidelines
This command is not supported in VTY line view or VTY line class view.
This command takes effect immediately.
This command is available in both user line view and user line class view. A non-default setting in either view takes precedence over a default setting in the other view. A non-default setting in user line view takes precedence over a non-default setting in user line class view.
You can use only the specified terminal session activation key to start a terminal session. To display the current terminal session activation key, use the display current-configuration | include activation-key command.

To verify the configuration:
1. Exit the console session.
[Sysname-line-console0] return
<Sysname> quit
2. Log in again through the console line.
The following message appears:
Press ENTER to get started.
3. Press Enter.
Pressing Enter does not start a session.
4. Press s.
A terminal session is started.

authentication-mode
Use authentication-mode to set the authentication mode for a user line.
Use undo authentication-mode to restore the default.
Syntax
In non-FIPS mode:
authentication-mode { none | password | scheme }
undo authentication-mode
In FIPS mode:
authentication-mode scheme
undo authentication-mode
Default
In non-FIPS mode:
The authentication mode is password for VTY lines, and none for console lines.
In FIPS mode:
The authentication mode is scheme.
Views
User line view
User line class view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
none: Disables authentication.
password: Performs local password authentication.
scheme: Performs AAA authentication. For more information about AAA, see Security Configuration Guide.
Usage guidelines
Only users assigned the network-admin, or level-15 user role can execute this command. Other users cannot execute this command, even if they are granted the right to execute this command.
When the authentication mode is none, a user can log in without authentication. To improve device security, use the password or scheme authentication mode.
In VTY line view, this command is associated with the protocol inbound command.
· If the settings of the two commands in VTY line view are both the default settings, the settings for the commands in VTY line class view take effect.
· If the settings of the two commands in VTY line view are both non-default settings, the non-default settings in VTY line view take effect.
· If only one command has a non-default setting in VTY line view, the other command uses the default setting, regardless of the setting in VTY line class view.
An authentication mode change does not take effect on the current session. It takes effect on subsequent login sessions.
Examples
# Enable the none authentication mode for VTY line 0.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] line vty 0
[Sysname-line-vty0] authentication-mode none
# Enable password authentication for VTY line 0 and set the password to 321.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] line vty 0
[Sysname-line-vty0] authentication-mode password

Syntax
escape-key { key-string | default }
undo escape-key
Default
The escape key is Ctrl+C.
Views
User line view
User line class view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
key-string: Specifies a shortcut key. It can be a character (case sensitive, except for d and D), or an ASCII code value in the range of 0 to 127. For example, if you configure escape-key 1, the shortcut key is Ctrl+A. If you configure escape-key a, the shortcut key is a. If you specify the character d or D for this argument, the actual shortcut key is Ctrl+C. To use d or D as the shortcut key, you must specify the ASCII code value of the character for this argument. For information about ASCII code values of individual characters, see the standard ASCII code chart. For information about ASCII code values of combined keys that use the Ctrl key, see Table 1.
default: Restores the default escape key Ctrl+C.
Usage guidelines
You can press the escape key to abort a command that is being executed, for example, a ping or tracert command. Whether a command can be aborted by Ctrl+C by default depends on the software implementation of the command. For more information, see the usage guidelines for the command.
As a best practice, use a key sequence as the escape key. If you define a single character as the escape key, pressing the key while a command is being executed stops the command. If no command is being executed, pressing the key enters the character as a common character. If you Telnet from the device to a remote device, pressing the key enters the character as a common character on the remote device. The key acts as the escape key on the remote device only when the following conditions are met:
· You define the same character as the escape key on the remote device.
· You press the key while a command is being executed on the remote device.
The undo escape-key command disables the current escape key. After you execute this undo command, no escape key is available.
This command is available in both user line view and user line class view. A non-default setting in either view takes precedence over a default setting in the other view. A non-default setting in user line view takes precedence over a non-default setting in user line class view.
The setting in user line view takes effect immediately on the current session. The setting in user line class view takes effect on login sessions that are established after the setting is configured.
To display the current escape key, use the display current-configuration | include escape-key command.
Examples
# Configure character a as the escape key for VTY line 0.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] line vty 0
[Sysname-line-vty0] escape-key a
To verify the configuration:
1. Ping IP address 192.168.1.49, specifying the -c keyword to set the number of ICMP echo request packets to 20.
<Sysname> ping -c 20 192.168.1.49
PING 192.168.1.49: 56 data bytes, press a to break
Reply from 192.168.1.49: bytes=56 Sequence=1 ttl=255 time=3 ms
Reply from 192.168.1.49: bytes=56 Sequence=2 ttl=255 time=3 ms
2. Press a.
The system aborts the command and returns to user view.

Parameters
size-value: Specifies the maximum number of history commands the buffer can store, in the range of 0 to 256.
Usage guidelines
Each user line uses a separate command history buffer to store commands successfully executed by its user. The buffer size determines how many history commands the buffer can store.
To display history commands in the buffer for your session, press the up or down arrow key, or execute the display history-command command. For more information about the command history buffer, see Fundamentals Configuration Guide.
Terminating a CLI session clears the commands in the command history buffer.
The setting in user line view takes effect immediately on the current session. The setting in user line class view takes effect on login sessions that are established after the setting is configured.
Examples
# Set the command history buffer size to 20 for VTY line 0.
<Sysname> system-view

Parameters
console: Specifies the console line class view.
vty: Specifies the VTY line class view.
Usage guidelines
To configure the same settings for all user lines of a line class, use this command to enter the user line class view.
In user line class view, you can execute the following commands:
· activation-key
· auto-execute command
· authentication-mode
· command accounting
· command authorization
· escape-key
· history-command max-size
· idle-timeout
· protocol inbound
· screen-length
· set authentication password
· shell
· terminal type
· user-role
For commands that are available in both user line view and user line class view, the device uses the following rules to determine the settings to use:
· A setting in user line view applies only to the user line. A setting in user line class view applies to all user lines of the class.
· A non-default setting in either view takes precedence over a default setting in the other view. A non-default setting in user line view takes precedence over a non-default setting in user line class view.
· A setting in user line class view does not take effect on current online users. It takes effect only on new login users.
Examples
# Set the CLI connection idle-timeout timer to 15 minutes in VTY line class view.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] line class vty
[Sysname-line-class-vty] idle-timeout 15
# In console line class view, configure the character s as the terminal session activation key.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] line class console
[Sysname-line-class-console] activation-key s
[Sysname-line-class-console] quit
# In the view of console line 0, restore the default terminal session activation key.
[Sysname] line console 0

telnet: Supports Telnet only.
Usage guidelines
Only users assigned the network-admin, or level-15 user role can execute this command. Other users cannot execute this command, even if they are granted the right to execute this command.
A configuration change in user line view does not take effect on the current session. It takes effect on subsequent login sessions.
Before configuring a user line to support SSH, set the authentication mode to scheme for the user line.
In VTY line view, this command is associated with the authentication-mode command. If you specify a non-default value for one of the two commands, the other command uses the default setting, regardless of the setting in VTY line class view.
· If the settings of the two commands in VTY line view are both the default settings, the settings for the commands in VTY line class view take effect.
· If the settings of the two commands in VTY line view are both non-default settings, the non-default settings in VTY line view take effect.
· If only one command has a non-default setting in VTY line view, the other command uses the default setting, regardless of the setting in VTY line class view.
Examples
# Enable user lines VTY 0 through VTY 4 to support only SSH.

network-admin
Parameters
remote-host: Specifies the IPv4 address or host name of a remote host. A host name can be a case-insensitive string of 1 to 253 characters. Valid characters include letters, digits, hyphens (-), underscores (_), and dots (.).
service-port: Specifies the TCP port number for the Telnet service on the remote host. The value range is 0 to 65535 and the default is 23.
vpn-instance vpn-instance-name: Specifies the MPLS L3VPN instance to which the remote host belongs. The vpn-instance-name argument represents the VPN instance name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters. If the remote host belongs to the public network, do not specify this option.
source: Specifies a source IPv4 address or source interface for outgoing Telnet packets. If you do not specify this option, the device uses the primary IPv4 address of the output interface for the route to the server as the source address.
interface interface-type interface-number: Specifies the source interface. The primary IPv4 address of the interface will be used as the source IPv4 address for outgoing Telnet packets.
ip ip-address: Specifies the source IPv4 address for outgoing Telnet packets.
dscp dscp-value: Specifies a DSCP value for outgoing Telnet packets. The value range is 0 to 63. The default is 48.
escape character: Specifies an escape character. You can use the escape character together with a dot (.) as the escape key to terminate the current Telnet connection and return to the upper level connection. The value for the character argument is case sensitive and must be different from the login username. As a best practice, specify a tilde (~) for the character argument.
Usage guidelines
This command is not supported in FIPS mode.
Methods for terminating Telnet connections include:
· Pressing Ctrl+K—Terminates all Telnet connections. You can use this method in any scenarios unless you configure an escape character. After you configure an escape character, pressing Ctrl+K does not terminate Telnet connections.
· Executing the quit command—Terminates the current Telnet connection and returns to the upper level connection. This method is not available when the Telnet server reboots or fails.
· Using the escape key—Terminates the current Telnet connection and returns to the upper level connection. You can use this method in any scenarios.
To use the escape key to terminate the current Telnet connection, enter the escape character and a dot in a new line. If you enter any other characters or perform any other operations (for example, pressing the backspace key) before entering the escape character, the escape character does not take effect.
The source address or interface specified by this command is applied only to the Telnet connection that is being established.
Examples
# Telnet to host 1.1.1.2, using 1.1.1.1 as the source IP address for outgoing Telnet packets.
<Sysname> telnet 1.1.1.2 source ip 1.1.1.1

Usage guidelines
This command is an older version reserved for backward compatibility purposes. It has the same functionality and output as the line class command. As a best practice, use the line class command.
To configure the same settings for all user lines of a line class, you can use this command to enter the user line class view.
The following commands are available in user line class view:
· activation-key
· auto-execute command
· authentication-mode
· command accounting
· command authorization
· escape-key
· history-command max-size
· idle-timeout
· protocol inbound
· screen-length
· set authentication password
· shell
· terminal type
· user-role
For commands that are available in both user line view and user line class view, the device uses the following rules to determine the settings to use:
· A setting in user line view applies only to the user line. A setting in user line class view applies to all user lines of the class.
· A non-default setting in either view takes precedence over a default setting in the other view. A non-default setting in user line view takes precedence over a non-default setting in user line class view.
· A setting in user line class view does not take effect on current online users. It takes effect only on new login users.
Examples
# Set the CLI connection idle-timeout timer to 15 minutes in VTY line class view.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] user-interface class vty
[Sysname-line-class-vty] idle-timeout 15
# In console line class view, configure character s as the terminal session activation key.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] user-interface class console
[Sysname-line-class-console] activation-key s
[Sysname-line-class-console] quit
# In the view of console line 0, restore the default terminal session activation key.
[Sysname] user-interface console 0
[Sysname-line-console0] undo activation-key
Alternatively, you can use the following command:
[Sysname-line-console0] activation-key 13
To verify the configuration:
1. Exit the session on console line 0.
[Sysname-line-console0] return
<Sysname> quit
2. Log in again through the console line.
The following message appears:
Press ENTER to get started.
3. Press Enter.
Pressing Enter does not start a session.
4. Enter s.
A terminal session is started.
<Sysname>

Use user-role to assign a user role to a user line. The device assigns the user role to a user of the line when the user logs in.
Use undo user-role to remove a user role or restore the default.
Syntax
user-role role-name
undo user-role [ role-name ]
Default
A console user is assigned the network-admin user role. Other users are assigned the network-operator user role.
Views
User line view
User line class view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
role-name: Specifies a user role name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 63 characters. The user role can be user-defined or predefined. Available predefined user roles include network-admin, network-operator, and level-0 to level-15. The predefined security-audit and guest-manager user roles are not supported in user line view or user line class view. If you do not specify this argument, the undo user-role command restores the default user roles.
Usage guidelines
This command is not supported in FIPS mode.
Only users assigned the network-admin, or level-15 user role can execute this command. Other users cannot execute this command, even if they are granted the right to execute this command.
This command is available in both user line view and user line class view. A non-default setting in either view takes precedence over a default setting in the other view. A non-default setting in user line view takes precedence over a non-default setting in user line class view.
A user role change does not take effect on the current session. It takes effect on subsequent login sessions.
You can assign up to 64 user roles to a user line.
For more information about user roles, see RBAC configuration in Fundamentals Configuration Guide.
Examples
# Assign user role network-admin to VTY line 0 to 63.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] line vty 0 63
