Configuring Virtual Terminal Line Settings
Virtual terminal lines allow remote access to the ACE. A virtual terminal line is
not associated with the console port; instead, it is a virtual port that allows you to
access the ACE.
Use the
line vty
configuration mode command to configure the virtual terminal line
settings. The CLI displays the line configuration mode. Use the
session-limit
command to configure the maximum number of terminal sessions per line.
The syntax for this command is as follows:
session-limit
number
The
number
argument configures the maximum number of terminal sessions per line.
The range is from 1 to 251.
For example, to configure a virtual terminal line, enter:
host1/Admin#
config
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z
host1/Admin(config)#
host1/Admin(config)#
line vty
host1/Admin(config-line)#
session-limit 23
To disable a setting for the configured virtual terminal line, use the
no
form of the
command. For example:
host1/Admin(config-line)#
no session-limit 23
Use the
clear line
command in Exec mode to close a specified vty session. The
syntax for this command is as follows:
clear line
vty_name
The
vty_name
argument specifies the name of the VTY session. Enter a maximum
of 64 characters for the name of the virtual terminal.
For example, to close a specified vty session, enter:
host1/Admin#
clear line vty vty1
