■ Use the no version to restore the default interval, 30 seconds.
■ See timeout login response.
Setting Time Limits for User Input
You can specify a time interval that the CLI waits for user input on the console or
vty lines. To do so:
1. Access the line configuration mode using either the console or vty keyword.
2. Specify the time during which the user must enter information. For example:
host1(config)#line vty 0
host1(config-line)#exec-timeout 4192 13
exec-timeout
■ Use to set the time interval that the console or vty lines wait for expected user
input.
■ If the interval passes and the user has not responded, the system closes the
session or lines.
■ Specify a time limit in the range 0–35791 minutes, and optionally specify the
number of seconds.
■ By default, there is no time limit.
■ Example
host1(config-line)#exec-timeout 4192 13
■ Use the no version to remove the time limit.
■ See exec-timeout.
Configuring CLI Messages
You can configure text banners for the CLI to display to users at different times in
the connection process.
banner
Use to configure message-of-the-day (MOTD), login, or exec banner to be
displayed by the CLI:
■
■ motd—Displays the banner when a console or vty connection is initiated.
■ login—Displays the banner before any user authentication (line or RADIUS
authentication). The banner is also displayed if user authentication is not
configured.
