SET SWITCH CONSOLETIMER

Syntax

set switch consoletimer=value

Parameter

consoletimer

Specifies the console timer in minutes. The range is 1
to 60 minutes. The default is 10 minutes.

Description

This command sets the console timer, which is used by the management
software to end inactive management sessions. If the AT-S62 software
does not detect any activity from a local or remote management station
after the period of time set by the console timer, it automatically ends
the management session. This security feature can prevent
unauthorized individuals from using your management station should
you step away from your system while configuring a switch. To view the
current console timer setting, refer to SHOW SWITCH on page 68.

Example

The following command sets the console timer to 25 minutes:

set switch consoletimer=25
