SYSTEM SHOW CONSOLE
Syntax
system show console
Parameters
None.
Privilege Levels
Administrator, read-write, and read-only.
Description
This command is used to display the setting for the console timer. This
parameter controls the amount of time (in minutes) that the management
software waits before it automatically ends an inactive local or remote
management session. The management software automatically logs off
the session if the console timer expires without any management activity.
This security feature prevents unauthorized individuals from using your
management station to change the configuration of the media converter
chassis should you step away from your system during a management
session.
A value of 0 (zero) disables the console timer. Inactive management
sessions are never timed out. This value should be used with caution. If
you disable the console timer, you must always remember to log off after
every local or remote management session of the media converter, or
future management session may be blocked.
To set the console timer setting, refer to “SYSTEM SET CONSOLE” on
page 62.
