How To

Let’s take Huawei’s S3328TP-SI switch as an example. This switch has 2 combo ports, which can be changed either to optical or electrical mode.

When taking into consideration that default settings are invisible in a configuration file, it is a good information that Huawei’s S3700/S5700 switches have such possibility to display default settings for ethernet interfaces. The ‘display this include-default’ command displays the effective configurations in the current view, including the unchanged default configurations.

Sometimes we can meet such situation on a router or a switch:

By default, on Huawei device, there are 5 vty lines available. If all these lines are occupied by users, no other user is able to access the device. Such situation can appear in 2 cases:

1. The device is fully occupied by telnet users.
2. All telnet sessions are hang.

The first case is normal and it can often happen. Sessions will be deleted when users log out from the device or their sessions’ idle-timeout expires. By default idle-timeout is set to 10 minutes.

24 – the default number of lines on one screen
