Description Use this command to specify the amount of time a CLI session can be idle before it logs you out.
The line vty exec timeout command is a configuration command and the timeout value set by this
command holds for subsequent login sessions, unless it is overwritten for a single session with the
terminal timeout command. The terminal timeout command is not a configuration command and
the timeout value set by this command controls only the current session. After the current session
times out, the line vty exec timeout value applies for subsequent sessions.
Usage Guidelines This command is supported only on the local switch.
This command is not available on the standby management module.
Enter no line vty exec-timeout to disable auto-logout and delete the timeout value.
Examples To set the terminal timeout to 60 minutes:
switch(config)# line vty exec-timeout 60
switch(config-line-vty)# exit
switch(config)# exit
switch# show running-config line vty
line vty
exec-timeout 60
