Idle timeout 383CLI Main Menu or SetupOnce the Administrator user password is verified, you are given completeaccess to the Nortel SNAS. If the Nortel SNAS is still set to its factorydefault configuration, the system will run Setup (see “Initial setup” (page41)), a utility designed to help you through the first-time configurationprocess. If the Nortel SNAS has already been configured, the Main menuof the CLI is displayed instead.Figure 22 "Administrator Main Menu" (page 383) shows the Main menuwith administrator privileges.Figure 22Administrator Main MenuCommand line history and editingFor a description of global commands, shortcuts, and command lineediting functions, see “CLI reference” (page 413).Idle timeout The Nortel SNAS will disconnect your local console connection orremote connection (Telnet or SSH) after 10 minutes of inactivity.This value can be changed to a maximum value of 1 hour using the/cfg/sys/adm/clitimeout command.If you are automatically disconnected after the specified idle timeoutinterval, any unapplied configuration changes are lost. Therefore, makesure to save your configuration changes regularly by using the globalapply command.If you have unapplied configuration changes when you use the globalexit command to log out from the CLI, you will be prompted to use theglobal diff command to view the pending configuration changes. Afterverifying the pending configuration changes, you can either apply thechanges or use the revert command to remove them.Nortel Secure Network Access SwitchUsing the Command Line InterfaceNN47230-100 03.01 Standard28 July 2008Copyright © 2007, 2008 Nortel Networks.
