Loopback interface is an interface that never goes down. Thats why its done so. To telnet to a router or a switch its not mandatory to have a loopback interface in place.
But for establishing a reverse telnet session you require a loop back ip address.

> Hi

I am not sure what following question realy means , can any one<br>please
clarify this

Put Loop0 into appropriate route protocols, and<br>make telnet loopback 0
access all routes and

switches.

Does this<br>mean telnet only allowed from Loopback interface (ip telnet
source<br>interface) or device will only allow telnet access if its loop0
address<br>used.

 Thanks
