SYSTEM SET CONSOLE
Syntax
system set console timeout= value
Parameter
timeout Specifies the console timer in minutes. The range is 0 to 60
minutes. The default is 10 minutes.
Privilege Levels
Administrator and read-write.
Description
This command sets the amount of time (in minutes) the management
software waits before automatically ending an inactive local or remote
management session. This parameter is referred to as the console timer. If
there is no management activity for the duration of the timer, the
management session is automatically logged off. This security feature can
prevent unauthorized individuals from using your management station to
alter the configuration settings of the media converter chassis if 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 remember to log off after every
local and remote management session of the media converter. Or. future
management sessions may be blocked.
To view the current console timer setting, refer to “SYSTEM SHOW
CONSOLE” on page 67.
Note
The console timer is independent of the management module’s date
and time and operates regardless of whether the date and time are
set.
Example
This command sets the console timer to 25 minutes:
system set console timeout=25
