Netopia CLI 874 Network Router User Manual


 
Motorola Netopia® Router CLI Commands 2-7
preferences console timeout seconds
no preferences console timeout
show preferences console timeout
These commands control the command-line and menu-based console auto logout. Note that the no preferences
console timeout command sets the timeout to zero, which disables the timeout.
The command:
no preferences console timeout
is equivalent to:
preferences console timeout 0
Example:
preferences console timeout 300
preferences date format { mm/dd/yy | dd/mm/yy | yy/mm/dd }
show preferences date format
These commands allow you to set or display your date formatting preferences for the router’s system clock.
preferences output format { terse | verbose }
show preferences output format
The preferences output format command affects the format of the output from show commands. When set to
verbose (the default), the output from show commands is formatted as a valid command line interface
command that could be entered at a command prompt. When set to terse, the output from show commands is
not formatted as a valid command line interface command that could be entered at a command prompt, but
rather includes only the value of the requested attribute. The terse mode may be more useful if the output will
be processed by a computer rather than a human being.
Example:
#preferences output format verbose
#show interface ethernet 0 ip address
interface ethernet 0 ip address 192.168.1.1/24
#preferences output format terse
#show interface ethernet 0 ip address
192.168.1.1/24
