correction.. if I telnet in from a different terminal it no longer prompts me for a password. It still wants the password to connect via the console cable though.
while enabled.. i did a 'show run' after i made the change.. it reads as follows..
---------------
no cdp run
!

Hmm I tried the changes but now I can telnet into the router without the password at all. (Its wide open) but I still have to use the Enable password. Cut/paste of what I entered. What did I miss?
---------------
COPO>en
Password:
COPO#config t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End...
Its strickly a requirement coming from Qualys.com we use them for security scans.
We really never have reason to access the router so the quick way out would to just disable telnet and use the terminal cable anytime we needed access correct?
Really appreciate the feedback. I can handle alot...
Hello All,
I'm having to get the network passed on a Security audit. Our router (cisco 2620) keeps failing on the scan because Telnet is enabled. I'm new to our routers, (my friend/coworker handled these things and he passed away recently) :( and I've been forced into learning these things now...
