Explanation / Answer

The word 'vty' means Virtual Terminal. The y is included in vty as Virtual TeletYpe, which is a command line interface created for a Telnet session in router.

'line vty 0 4' means the number of VTY's in active state on device and number of simultaneous remote connections one wants to allow. One can have five simultaneous connections in the case of 'line vty 0 4'. Although one can easily generate more number of vty lines by adding additional VTY's. For example,'line vty 0 7' which will provide 8 simultaneous vty lines.

Hope this helps.
