Setting Time Out of EXEC Privilege Mode
EXEC time-out is a basic security feature that returns the system to EXEC mode after a period of inactivity on the terminal
lines.
To set time out, use the following commands.
Set the number of minutes and seconds. The default is 10 minutes on the console and 30 minutes on VTY. Disable EXEC
time out by setting the time-out period to 0.
LINE mode
exec-timeout minutes [seconds]
Return to the default time-out values.
LINE mode
no exec-timeout
The following example shows how to set the time-out period and how to view the configuration using the show config
command from LINE mode.
Dell(conf)#line con 0
Dell(config-line-console)#exec-timeout 0
Dell(config-line-console)#show config
line console 0
exec-timeout 0 0
Dell(config-line-console)#
Using Telnet to Access Another Network Device
To telnet to another device, use the following commands.
NOTE:
On the Z9500, the system allows 120 Telnet sessions per minute, allowing the login and logout of 10 Telnet sessions,
12 times in a minute. If the system reaches this non-practical limit, the Telnet service is stopped for 10 minutes. You can use
console and SSH service to access the system during downtime.
Telnet to a device with an IPv4 or IPv6 address.
EXEC Privilege
telnet [ip-address]
If you do not enter an IP address, the system enters a Telnet dialog that prompts you for one.
Enter an IPv4 address in dotted decimal format (A.B.C.D).
Enter an IPv6 address in the format 0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000. Elision of zeros is supported.
