Catalyst 2360 Switch Software Configuration Guide

OL-19808-01

Chapter 8      Configuring Interface Characteristics

Using the Switch USB Ports

*Mar  1 00:25:36.860: %USB_CONSOLE-6-CONFIG_DISABLE: Console media-type USB disabled by 

system configuration, media-type reverted to RJ45.

At this point the switch does not allow a USB console to have input. A log entry shows when a console 
cable is attached. If a USB console cable is connected, it is prevented from providing input.

*Mar  1 00:34:27.498: %USB_CONSOLE-6-CONFIG_DISALLOW: Console media-type USB is disallowed 

by system configuration, media-type remains RJ45. (switch-stk-2)

This example reverses the previous configuration and immediately activates any USB console that is 
connected. 

Switch# 

configure terminal

Switch(config)# 

line console 0

Switch(config-line)# 

no media-type rj45

Configuring the USB Inactivity Timeout

The configurable inactivity timeout reactivates the RJ-45 console if the USB console is activated but no 
input activity occurs on it for a specified time period. When the USB console is deactivated due to a 
timeout, you can restore its operation by disconnecting and reconnecting the USB cable. 

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure an inactivity timeout. 

This example configures the inactivity timeout to 30 minutes:

Switch# 

configure terminal

Switch#(config)# 

line console 0

Switch#(config-line)# 

usb-inactivity-timeout 30

To disable the configuration, use these commands:

Switch#(config)# 

line console 0

switch#(config-line)# 

no usb-inactivity-timeout

If there is no (input) activity on a USB console for the configured number of minutes, the console reverts 
to RJ-45, and a log shows this occurrence:

*Mar  1 00:47:25.625: %USB_CONSOLE-6-INACTIVITY_DISABLE: Console media-type USB disabled 

due to inactivity, media-type reverted to RJ45.

At this point, the only way to reactivate the USB console is to disconnect and reconnect the cable. 

When the USB cable on the switch has been disconnected and reconnected, a log similar to this appears:

*Mar  1 00:48:28.640: %USB_CONSOLE-6-MEDIA_USB: Console media-type is USB.

Command

Purpose

Step 1

configure terminal

Enter global configuration mode.

Step 2

line console 0

Configure the console port. Enter console line configuration mode.

Step 3

usb-inactivity-timeout 

timeout-minutes

Specify an inactivity timeout for the console port. The range is 1 to 
240 minutes. The default is no timeout.

Step 4

show running-configuration

Verify your setting. 

Step 5

copy running-config startup-config

(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
