Ending Device Sessions

To end your session:

Enter CLI mode and issue a Quit command. - or -

If you initiated the device session with a Connect command, enter CLI mode and issue a Disconnect command.

- or -

Allow the port to time-out due to inactivity. In this case, a notification message is issued and the serial CLI session returns to CLI mode. This time-out may occur while you are in CLI mode.

- or -

For modem connections, if a carrier drop occurs, the serial CLI session is automatically logged off.

If you end a shared session and you were the session originator, the next user sharing the session becomes the session originator.

For more information, see Quit Command on page 64 and Disconnect Command on page 54.

To end another user’s session:

Issue a User Logout command, specifying the name of the user to be logged out. A message is sent and the connection is dropped.

If you are logged out by another user during a shared session and you are the session originator, all the sessions that share with you will also be logged out.

For more information, see User Logout command on page 88. For information about session sharing, see Session sharing on page 23.

Session time-out

The CCM console management appliance monitors data traffic when you are connected to an attached serial device. You may specify a time-out value with the Server CLI command. You may also specify a time-out value for each port with the Port Set command. When no data is received from the connected user for the configured number of minutes, the connection is terminated.

The following time-out values are used:

•For a Telnet session, the Server CLI time-out value is used.

•For a serial port session, if the port’s configured time-out value is zero, the Server CLI time- out value is used, even if it is also zero.

•For a serial port session, if the port’s configured time-out value is non-zero, that value is used.

Managing User Accounts

The CCM user database can store information for up to 64 user accounts.
