Cabletron Systems ZX-250 manual Console Time-out, Creating an Alias

Switch Installation and Setup Using the Console

2.6.2Console Time-out

The console can be configured to exit if it does not sense a key stroke within a defined length of time. By default, the SmartCell ZX-250 is set to never time-out (value = 0). To activate the time-out feature, use the set ConsoleTimeOut command to adjust the time-out period:

SmartCell	ZX # set consoletimeout
Timeout(0)		: 30 <Will time-out in 30 minutes without input
Confirm (y/N)? : y
SmartCell	ZX #

2.6.3Creating an Alias

Use the add alias command to create shorter or easier-to-remember names for command lines. For example:

SmartCell	ZX # add alias
AliasName()		: traffic
AliasedString()		: set switchtrafficcongestion
SmartCell	ZX #

The above example creates an alias (traffic) that you can enter in place of the command set

SwitchTrafficCongestion. For example:

SmartCell ZX # traffic

Enter the show alias command to display a list of all defined aliases and the command lines to which they correspond.

:SmartCell	ZX # show alias
