Setting CLI Parameters

The terminal history command specifies the number of commands that will be
stored in the command history buffer. Commands stored in the buffer can be
recalled without having to type the complete command again. When you hit
the ↑ key, the CLI displays the commands that were entered, from the most
recent.
To specify the number of commands stored in the command history buffer,
enter the following command in Exec mode or Privileged Exec mode.
terminal history size <num>
Alternatively, you can display all the commands that were executed during a
CLI session. To display the CLI commands, enter the following command.
show history
The CLI also provides commands for setting the terminal display. Use the
following commands in Exec mode or Privileged Exec mode to set and display
terminal settings.
Command
terminal length <num>
terminal width <num>
show terminal
terminal history
terminal [no] timestamp
[no] terminal monitor
When setting the terminal length and width, you should select values that
match your display window (or physical terminal) size. Selecting values
outside the possible range, may cause problems with the system and the
display.
When selecting terminal length, entering a value of 0 will disable the pager
functionality. This will cause output that is longer than your display window
to scroll off the display.
If you are using a terminal emulator that supports its own length and width
settings, these may override your configuration settings.
