Description

 

This command sets the console timer, which is used by the management software to end inactive management sessions. If the AT-S62 software does not detect any activity from a local or remote management station after the period of time set by the console timer, it automatically ends the management session. This security feature can prevent unauthorized individuals from using your management station should you step away from your system while configuring a switch. To view the current console timer setting, refer to SHOW SWITCH on page 68.
