Telnet session expiration timer
Once a telnet session is established, the session will remain open
while there is activity. However, if the session is left idle, the session
will expire and will be automatically terminated based on the setting
of the telnet inactivity-period command. The default setting for this
timer is 900 seconds or 15 minutes. Setting this timer to 0
deactivates the inactivity timer so the telnet session will not expire.
You can set the telnet inactivity timer in configure mode as follows:
<configure># IP telnet inactivity-period
<time-out in seconds>
Minimum value: 0 seconds Disables inactivity timer
Default value: 900 seconds Expiration time is 15 minutes.
Maximum value: 65,536 seconds Expiration time is approx. 18 hrs.
CAUTION
Avaya recommends not to disable the inactivity timer. If the
inactivity timer is disabled and the maximum number of telnet
sessions are open, none of them will expire. Subsequent attempts to
establish a telnet session will fail. Additionally, idle Telnet sessions
may represent security risks.
Configuring the Supervisor Module Using the CLI
To connect to the Web Agent, you must first use the serial command
line interface (CLI) to configure the switch’s IP address and a
subnetwork mask on the supervisor module.
To configure the supervisor module using the CLI:
1. Attach a 9-pin straight-through male-to-female serial cable
from the serial port on your laptop or PC to the serial port on
the supervisor module’s front panel (Figure 2-1).
