configure terminal
Example:
Router# configure terminal
Step 2
Configures the console line and starts the line configuration command
collection mode.
line console 0
Example:
Router(config)# line console 0
Step 3
Sets the idle privileged EXEC timeout, which is the interval that the
privileged EXEC command interpreter waits until user input is detected.
exec-timeout minutes
[
seconds
]
Example:
Router(config-line)# exec-timeout 0
0
Step 4
The example shows how to specify no timeout. Setting the exec-timeout
value to 0 will cause the router to never log out once logged in. This
could have security implications if you leave the console without
manually logging out using the
disable
command.
Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
end
Example:
Router(config)# end
Step 5
Displays the running configuration file.
show running-config
Step 6
Example:
Router# show running-config
Verify that you have configured the idle privileged EXEC timeout
correctly.
Examples
The following example shows how to set the console idle privileged EXEC timeout to 2 minutes 30 seconds:
line console
exec-timeout 2 30
The following example shows how to set the console idle privileged EXEC timeout to 30 seconds:
