Managing Sessions
11-46 Configuring and Managing Interactive Devices
For ports with session management terminals, the kind of terminal at the port further
determines the port’s session limit, where the access server port can support up to eight
terminal sessions. However, terminal devices typically support a maximum of less
than eight terminal sessions. The documentation for the terminal device should tell you
how many terminal sessions the device can have. Set the port session limit to a value
in that range.
Displaying Session Information
You can display a line of information about the current status of a port or ports and a
list of the sessions on the port or ports. To display a summary of session information,
use the SHOW SESSIONS command. If you wish to display a continuous update of
the sessions, use the MONITOR SESSIONS command.
Use the ALL keyword instead of a port number to receive equivalent information about
the sessions for all access server ports. For ports set up as a LAT service or Telnet
listener, the user name is displayed as “(Remote)”.
Example: SHOW SESSIONS Display
The following example shows how to generate a sessions display for ports 1 and 2. The
first line of the sessions display begins with the port number and port user name. On
the same line, the display shows the port mode (either Local Mode or Session Mode)
and the current session number.
The next few lines in the display consist of active-session information. One line of
information appears for each active session on the port. When a session is terminated,
the information for the session is removed and replaced by the information below it in
the display.
