2-12 CHAPTER 2: HOW TO USE THE ADMINISTRATION CONSOLE
To ensure that your Administration Console session will not be pre-empted
by remote access, you can lock the Administration Console. Remote access
is prohibited only for that particular session.
The Administration Console is always locked when you are in the middle of a
command. For example, the Administration Console is locked during a
software update.
To lock the Administration Console:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
system consoleLock
You are prompted to unlock (off) or lock (on) the Administration Console as
shown here:
Enter new value (off,on) [on]:
2 Enter off to unlock the Administration Console or on to lock it.
Enabling Timeout
of Remote Sessions
You can configure the Switch 2200 to disconnect remote sessions after a
user-specified time interval of no activity. By default, the telnet timeout is
disabled.
To enable or disable the telnet timeout:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
system telnet timeOut
2 Enter the telnet timeout state (off or on).
The default time interval is 30 minutes. To change this value, follow the
instructions in the next section.
