r7000p and Telnet

[leroybaobab]

Hi

Is telnet enabled by default on the R7000P? I surely did not enable it?

snip from debug console.log.txt

386.480000] 4299 admin 1720 S update_device_info
<4>[ 386.480000] 4378 admin SW [ telnetDBGD ]

I also stumbled upon this:

Btw I always block these services after a factory reset

   Firmware version?

   I doubt it.  What happens if you try to make a Telnet connection to
the router?

   Obtained how, exactly?

   What do you think that those messages prove?  What happens if you try
to make a Telnet connection to the router?

   I know nothing, but my guess would be that those processes are
related to _enabling_ Telnet access, and that neither is an actual
Telnet server (which I'd expect to look like "/sbin/telnetd").

   "block" how, exactly?  Are you worried about external access to
something, or access to the router from within your LAN, or what?
