Telnet from WAN

[pripps]

Hello

I need to access my 500gP from WAN via telnet. I understood from forum reading that I need to write a system command in systemsetting. Can someone help me with such command? I am using latest Oleg frm.

Thanks

Telnet have no secure connection and without rules on firewall or VPN I thing it’s little bit stupid to put it outside.
Maybe better way will be to use ssh (openssh or dropbear from package ) to connect console ??

Yes, I am aware about this but I need to access the roter from my job. It is a temporary solution. I have no time at home to play with configuration. Can you give me the routines to fix telnet from outside?
