Configuring session parameters for serial console switches
The Sessions subcategory specifies:
•
How history buffer data is handled at the start and end of the telnet session. You can have the data
sent to the virtual terminal window automatically when a telnet session is established (Auto) or have
it held until it is explicitly requested (Hold). You can also retain the history buffer content when the
telnet session ends (Keep) or discard it (Clear).
•
Whether the serial console switch automatically closes an inactive telnet session. When enabled, the
telnet session is closed when the serial console switch does not receive any data within a specified
number of minutes.
•
Whether the serial console switch allows plaintext sessions.
•
SSH settings, including the ability to enable and disable SSH, specify or modify an SSH
authentication mode, create an SSH key, and display the current SSH fingerprints.
