S8700 Firewall question.

[SnowTech]

Does anyone use the Firewall Link on the Maintenance page of the Switch's web Administration?

If so I have a question. I have unchecked the box for Telnet "Output from Server". I clicked Submit and navigated away from the web page and back again to make sure the setting took. The problem is that I am still able to Dial into the Server via INADS, begin a telnet session to the server and from their start another telnet session from the server to a device on our corporate LAN.
I am familiar with Linux Firewalls, and know that when I have made changes on them, that I had to restart the firewall to have the changes take effect. Do I need to do this on the S8700? (probably can't since I do not have a root login)

DId you change it on both servers ? You may need to re-boot but you can do that if you have access to the maintenance page. YOu dont need root login to do that.

thanks mrjedi,
I did not try that on both servers, just the active one. I'll try that and get back to you. Thanks again.

That did it mrjedi. Thanks again. Can't believe it was that simple. I guess I kinda overlooked the survivable processor thing. I was using a third IP which directs me to the active spe, I think it's on the Cajun.
