you save the configuration with write memory and then execute boot before the

 

new console configuration will take effect.

VT100 operation

19,200 baud

No flow control

10-minute inactivity time

Critical log events

you would use the following command sequence:

The switch implements the Event Log change immediately. The switch implements the other console changes after executing write memory and reload.
