M4100: scheduled config save via encrypted connection (needs telnet up to now..)
Hello everybody, we would like to use NMS300 to save the config of our 40 Netgear Switches (M4100 series, different models) automatically every night, but this requires telnet to be enabled on all switches (confirmed by Netgear Expert Bruce_G: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Managed-Switches/NMS300-config-backup-with-telnet-disabled/m-p/1161992/thread-id/2682#M2753) I think that transmitting a password for administrative access in cleartext over the network isn't best practice, especially for a product which claims to be enterprise ready. Would you please implement an option for a scheduled config saving and other mass actions like firmware update for all switches via an encrypted conection? It should be possible to disable telnet on the switches without disabling any funcionality (apart from logging in via telnet of course..) ;-) Thanks in advance! Kind Regards Christoph PeusWhat is the AT entercnd password?
You can connect via "telnet 192.168.1.1 5510" to gain access to "AT shell" which responds to various AT commands, e.g. status or band selection. "at!entercnd" is the command for band selection but it needs a password. What is the password? It's not any of the common ones it usually is.Enable Telnet on R7000
Hi, I tried a lot of ways to enable telnet service without success....Searching in the community, I saw that there are others people interested of this function on the R7000 AC1900 Smart WiFi Router Nighthawk. These are some examples of posts in the communty: 1) Enabling telnet on R7000 2) Telnet not working on latest firmware (V1.0.9.10_1.2.21) 3) How to enable telnet on this router? Please, can you release a FW with this feature? Thanks!
FVS318G Telnet LAN<>WAN firewall settings not working
Hello, when logging into the router via telnet and accessing the fw / lan-wan settings, I cannot use the show function nor can I disable or enable any rules. I need this to work for an automated task that should change these parameters. It tells me that I provided too few parameters, however the show functions in the other routing virtual folders seem to work just fine without any additional arguments. Am I missing something, or is there a way to contact Netgear so that they can finally fix this and some other issues in the firmware. Or do I really have to build and flash OpenWrt and do my own, less buggy firmware? Sincerely, Benedikt
