Quitting from a Local Management Session

To quit a local management session, return to the Main Menu and type Q for Quit. When you are finished managing the switch, make sure you exit from a management session. Quitting from a local session prevents unauthorized changes to the switch’s configuration if you leave your workstation unattended.

Note

A local management session automatically times out if there is no management activity during a pre-defined length of time referred to as the timeout period. The timeout feature is intended to protect the parameter settings on the switch from unauthorized changes should you leave your management station unattended during a management session. The default timeout value is 10 minutes. To change the timeout default value, refer to “Setting the User Interface Configuration” on page 36.
