Configuring the Omega Interface

Specifying a Timeout Value
Specifying a timeout value is a way to prevent unauthorized individuals
from using the Omega interface in the event you forget to exit the
Omega interface and leave your management station unattended. By
specifying a timeout value, the program will end the session if it detects
that there has been no management activity after the timeout value has
expired. The default for the timeout value is 5 minutes.
To enter a new timeout value, perform the following procedure:
1. From the Omega Main Menu, choose System Configuration.
The the System Configuration menu is displayed.
2. Select Omega Options.
The Omega Options window in Figure 70 on page 144 is displayed.
3. Enter a value from 0 (zero) to 65,535 (in minutes) in the Timeout field.
Select Enter or press .
Entering a value of 0 means there is no timeout. The Omega interface
will not automatically end any session. A session is ended only if you
end the session yourself. If you enter 0, you must always properly quit
after a management session in order not to block subsequent remote
sessions and software downloads to the switch.
Selecting Reset returns the timeout value to the default value of 5
minutes.
The new Omega timeout value is now activated on the switch.
4. Return to the Main Menu.
