Ending a Management Session

You should always log off at the conclusion of every management session
of a switch. If you leave your management session unattended without
logging off, anyone can use your workstation to make unauthorized
changes to the unit’s parameter settings.

The switch has a console timer that automatically ends a management
session if there is no management activity for the specified length of time.
The default is ten minutes.

Note

Since there can be only one active manager session on a switch at a
time, failure to properly exit from a management session may block
future management sessions until the console timer times out.

The following sections describe how to end a management session from
each of the management interfaces.

Menus Interface

To end a management session from the menus interface, return to the
Main Menu and type Q for Quit.

Command Line Interface

of the following commands.
