7.11.3 TELNETTIMEOUT Command
sys admin>>TELNETTIMEOUT
Timeout set to 5 minutes
Sys admin>>TELNETTIMEOUT 0
Timeout set to 0 minutes
0 disables the timeout from occurring
sys admin>>TELNETTIMEOUT 2
Timeout set to 2 minutes
sys admin>>
The TELNETTIMEOUT command allows the sys admin to define the amount of time that a
network card may have an idle telnet session before breaking the network connection. A telnet
session is considered to be idle if no characters are sent from the user’s terminal. Once the
time limit has been reached, the user will be logged out and the network connection will be
broken. The connection will be broken if there is no activity at any login level (from logged out
up to direct mode). This is intended to prevent a “dead” session from tying up system
resources. This command will define the idle time limit for all network cards present in the
chassis.
To display the current system value for the idle telnet session time limit, type
TELNETTIMEOUT
at the command prompt. To change the time limit, the command is entered in the form
TELNETTIMEOUT <t>, where <t> is the time limit in whole minutes. The valid range for <t> is
0 to 30, with the default value set as 1. If the value is set to 0, then the time limit is disabled.
7.11.4 MODEMTIMEOUT Command
Sys admin>>modemtimeout
Timeout set to 5 minutes
Sys admin>>modemtimeout 0
Timeout set to 0 minutes
0 disables the timeout from occurring
Sys admin>>modemtimeout 2
Timeout set to 2 minutes
sys admin>>
The
MODEMTIMEOUT command is identical to the TELNETTIMEOUT command, but causes the
automatic disconnection of idle modem card sessions. The modem card will deselect any
currently selected device port channel, log the user out, and disconnect the telephone
connection once the idle session time limit has been reached. Entering the time limit in whole
minutes after the command sets the idle time limit. Entering a value of 0 will disable the
timeout. Entering the command by itself will display the current modem idle call time limit.
Any users listening to a connection that is broken by
BREAK, FORCELOGOUT,
TELNETTIMEOUT, or a MODEMTIMEOUT will lose the connection as well.
