A switch can have an Ip address for telnetting purpose.

So, if you telnet to the switch, and if you have no password on Telnet you can access the switch (provided that there is no privileged mode password set) and then 'Show Run' , you can read the running configuration.

If the switch has an Ip address, you telnet to the switch and provided that there is no password set either at virtual terminals or to enter the privileged mode, you can enter privileged mode and write sh run and read the running config.
