[c-nsp] OT: Telnet lock-out vulnerability

[Amol Sapkal]

Hi Guys,

Slightly OT.
Few days back one of my 7513's was not prompting me for a username/password.
Though I could see the IP of the router on the telnet window top
(indicating that tcp connection on port 23 is through) I was not being
prompted for the username.

Has this anything to do with the Cisco telnet vulnerability?

I dont think it had anything to do with my TACACS. I had to finally
issue a reload.
