cfgSsnMgtTelnetIdleTimeout (Read/Write)
Description | Defines the Telnet idle timeout. This property sets the amount of |
| time in seconds that a connection is allowed to remain idle (there is |
| no user input). The session is cancelled if the time limit set by this |
| property is reached. Changes to this setting do not affect the |
| current session (you must log out and log in again to make the new |
| settings effective). |
| An expired Telnet session displays the following error message: |
| • In case of iDRAC6 on Rack and Tower Servers: |
| Connection timed out |
| • In case of iDRAC6 Enterprise on Blade Servers: |
| Session timed out. Closing the session... |
| After the message is displayed, the system returns you to the shell |
| that generated the Telnet session. |
Legal Values | 0 (No timeout) |
| 0– 10800 |
| For CMC: 60 – 10800 |
Default | For iDRAC6 on Rack and Tower Servers: 300 |
| For iDRAC6 Enterprise on Blade Servers and CMC: 1800 |
NOTE: If 0 (no timeout), the network connection does not send keep alive packets to probe the client. Otherwise, keep alive packets are sent to guarantee that the client is responding.
