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-S60 software
does not detect any activity from a local or remote management station
after the time set with 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 (console
startup mode), refer to SHOW SWITCH on page 55.

Example

The following command sets the console timer to 25 minutes:

set switch consoletimer=25
