Logging Off
If you have finished using the VT100 management
interface, select the LOGOFF option from the
bottom of the main menu. If you accessed the
VT100 management interface using a Telnet session
or modem connection, the connection is closed
automatically.
Auto Logout
There is a built-in security timeout on the VT100
interface. If you do not press any keys for 3 min-
utes, the management facility warns you that the
inactivity timer is about to expire. If you do not
press a key within 10 seconds, the timer expires and
the screen is locked; any displayed statistics continue
to be updated. When you next press any key, the
display changes to the Auto Logout screen.
The Auto Logout screen (shown in Figure 3-5 )
requests you to enter your password again. If the
password is correctly entered, the screen that was
active when the timer expired is displayed. If you
make a mistake entering your password, you are
returned to the Logon screen.
