Configuring Command-Line Access To The Router - Cisco 520-T1 - Small Business Pro SR Secure Router Software Configuration Manual

Configuring Basic Parameters
Last clearing of "show interface" counters never
Queuing strategy: fifo
Output queue 0/0, 0 drops; input queue 0/75, 0 drops
5 minute input rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec
5 minute output rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec
Another way to verify the loopback interface is to ping it:
Router# ping 200.200.100.1
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 200.200.100.1, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/2/4 ms

Configuring Command-Line Access to the Router

Perform these steps to configure parameters to control access to the router, beginning in global
configuration mode:
Command
Step 1 line [aux | console | tty | vty] line-number
Example:
Router(config)# line console 0
Router(config-line)#
Step 2 password password
Example:
Router(config-line)# password 5dr4Hepw3
Router(config-line)#
Step 3 login
Example:
Router(config-line)# login
Router(config-line)#
Step 4
exec-timeout minutes [seconds]
Example:
Router(config-line)# exec-timeout 5 30
Router(config-line)#

Purpose
Enters line configuration mode, and specifies the
type of line.
This example specifies a console terminal for
access.
Specifies a unique password for the console
terminal line.
Enables password checking at terminal session
login.
Sets the interval that the EXEC command
interpreter waits until user input is detected. The
default is 10 minutes. Optionally, add seconds to
the interval value.
This example shows a timeout of 5 minutes and
30 seconds. Entering a timeout of 0 0 specifies
never to time out.
