Telnet/SSH into a server in packet tracer

Is it possible to remotely access a server in packet tracer, like you would with a router or switch via telnet or ssh? 

 

Examples of servers as in mail, DHCP, DNS or web servers? I'm being asked in one of my projects to allow only certain staff members to be able to manage the servers (denying and permitting staff through standard access lists) but I'm not sure how you'd remotely manage servers in packet tracer. 

 

Thanks

Hi @tbasi19 

 

I have tried and it is not possible to take control of the server by telnet or SSH. When I wanted to test the remote control of a server in PT, I have done it with the FTP service, because that service does allow remote control.

 

Regards

Hi luis

 

Thank you for letting me know, I'll make use of the ftp server access.
