Usage Guidelines

You can use the shell command on a user interface to enable terminal services. This command enables users to enter commands through this interface to query device information and configure the device.

You can use the undo shell command on the user interface to disable terminal services. This command does not allow users to perform any operations through this interface. After using the undo shell command in the VTY view, this user interface does not provide Telnet, STelnet, and SFTP access.

The console interface does not support this command.
