Removing Support for Telnet from a Media Interface

AC.

To remove support for telnet from a media interface on an Oracle Communications Session Border Controller (SBC), there are two possible ways to accomplish this:

1. Remove HIP (Host Identity Protocol) IP address from the network-interface configuration element:

• Navigate to the network-interface configuration element.
• Run the "delete-hip-ip <IP address>" command to remove the HIP IP address associated with the interface.
• This will remove support for telnet from the media interface, as telnet uses HIP to establish connections.

2. Remove telnet IP address from the network-interface configuration element:

• Navigate to the network-interface configuration element.
• Run the "remove-telnet-ip <IP address>" command to remove the telnet IP address associated with the interface.
• This will also remove support for telnet from the media interface.

It's important to note that these commands should only be used when telnet is not required for device management, as removing telnet support may limit the ability to manage the device using that protocol. Additionally, removing HIP IP addresses or telnet IP addresses will not affect other protocols or services running on the media interface.

In contrast, removing HIP IP addresses from the phy-interface configuration element or running the "remove-hip-ip <IP address>" command from the network-interface configuration element will remove support for all protocols associated with that IP address, including not only telnet but also other management protocols such as SSH, SNMP, and HTTP. Therefore, these options are not the correct choices for removing support for telnet specifically.
