CLI Session

CLI Session

All commands are available at any time once a communication session
has been established with the BV10.

All commands are executed immediately and any configuration changes
are saved automatically.

Idle Timeout

The BV10 has a security feature, called the idle timeout, that logs users out
of a CLI session and closes the connection if there has been no activity for
a specified period of time. An idle timeout can be set for each type of
access (CONSOLE port, Telnet session, or SSH session). It can also be
disabled.

Refer to console telnet|ssh|serial idle-timeout value_in_seconds on
page 62 for more infor
mation on how to configure the timeout period.

In addition to the session timeout, a communication session is
automatically closed when the connection is closed or lost (for a LAN
connection).
