That is, the user interface will be disconnected automatically after 10 minutes
without any operation.
idle-timeout 0 means disabling idle-timeout.
Locking user interface
This configuration is to lock the current user interface and prompt the user to
enter the password. This makes it impossible for others to operate in the interface
after the user leaves.
Setting the screen length
If a command displays more than one screen of information, you can use the
following command to set how many lines to be displayed in a screen, so that the
information can be separated in different screens and you can view it more
conveniently.
Note that the number of lines that can be displayed in each screen remains the
same when screen-length is set to 1 or 2.
By default, 24 lines (including the multi-screen identifier lines) are displayed in one
screen when the multi-screen display function is enabled .
Use screen-length 0 to disable the multi-screen display function.
Setting the history command buffer size
By default, the size of the history command buffer is 10, that is, 10 history
commands can be saved.

method, level of command which a user can use after logging on, level of
command which a user can use after logging on from the specifically user
