line vty 0 4

When configuring the virtual terminal for telnet sessions, I enter line vty 0 4. Does the 0 4 represent ports 0 - 4 ? Does that mean you can have 5 separate telnet sessions to the router at one time ?

It means that you can have 5 different virtual terminal (Telnet) sessions at a time. In some configurations, it is possible to define extra vty lines for handling things like X.25 PAD conversions etc. Try vty line 5 for example, and see if you can parameterise it.

You also have lines vty 5 15 on most switches.
