7.11.3TELNETTIMEOUT Command

sys admin>>TELNETTIMEOUT Timeout set to 5 minutes

Sys admin>>TELNETTIMEOUT 0 Timeout set to 0 minutes

0 disables the timeout from occurring

sys admin>>TELNETTIMEOUT 2 Timeout set to 2 minutes

sys admin>>

The TELNETTIMEOUT command allows the sys admin to define the amount of time that a network card may have an idle telnet session before breaking the network connection. A telnet session is considered to be idle if no characters are sent from the user’s terminal. Once the time limit has been reached, the user will be logged out and the network connection will be broken. The connection will be broken if there is no activity at any login level (from logged out up to direct mode). This is intended to prevent a “dead” session from tying up system resources. This command will define the idle time limit for all network cards present in the chassis.

To display the current system value for the idle telnet session time limit, type TELNETTIMEOUT at the command prompt. To change the time limit, the command is entered in the form TELNETTIMEOUT <t>, where <t> is the time limit in whole minutes. The valid range for <t> is 0 to 30, with the default value set as 1. If the value is set to 0, then the time limit is disabled.

7.11.4MODEMTIMEOUT Command

Sys admin>>modemtimeout

Timeout set to 5 minutes

Sys admin>>modemtimeout 0 Timeout set to 0 minutes

0 disables the timeout from occurring

Sys admin>>modemtimeout 2

Timeout set to 2 minutes

sys admin>>

The MODEMTIMEOUT command is identical to the TELNETTIMEOUT command, but causes the automatic disconnection of idle modem card sessions. The modem card will deselect any currently selected device port channel, log the user out, and disconnect the telephone connection once the idle session time limit has been reached. Entering the time limit in whole minutes after the command sets the idle time limit. Entering a value of 0 will disable the timeout. Entering the command by itself will display the current modem idle call time limit.

Any users listening to a connection that is broken by BREAK, FORCELOGOUT, TELNETTIMEOUT, or a MODEMTIMEOUT will lose the connection as well.
