HP 5120 series Configuration Manual page 68

To do...
Configure the type
of terminal display
Configure the user
privilege level for
login users
Set the maximum
number of lines on
the next screen
Set the size of the
history command
buffer
Set the idle-timeout
timer
CAUTION:
The common settings configured for Console login take effect immediately. If you configure the common
•
settings after you log in through the Console port, the current connection may be interrupted. To avoid
this problem, use another login method. After you configure the common settings for Console login, you
need to modify the settings on the terminal to make them consistent with those on the device.
• The baud rate of the Console port must be lower than the transmission rate of the modem. Otherwise,
packets may be lost.
Use the command...
terminal type { ansi | vt100 }
user privilege level level
screen-length screen-length
history-command max-size value
idle-timeout minutes [ seconds ]
61
Remarks
Optional
By default, the terminal display type
is ANSI.
The device supports two types of
terminal display: ANSI and VT100.
HP recommends that you set the
display type of both the device and
the client to VT100. If the device and
the client use different display types
(for example, hyper terminal or
Telnet terminal) or both are set to
ANSI, when the total number of
characters of the edited command
line exceeds 80, an anomaly such
as cursor corruption or abnormal
display of the terminal display may
occur on the client.
Optional
3 by default.
This command is not supported in
FIPS mode.
Optional
By default, the next screen displays
24 lines at most.
A value of 0 disables the function.
Optional
By default, the buffer saves 10
history commands at most.
Optional
The default idle-timeout is 10
minutes. The system automatically
terminates the user's connection if
no information interaction occurs
between the device and the user
within the idle-timeout time.
Setting idle-timeout to 0 disables the
timer.
