Setting Time Out of EXEC Privilege Mode
EXEC time-out is a basic security feature that returns the system to EXEC mode after a period of inactivity
on the terminal lines.
To set time out, use the following commands.
• Set the number of minutes and seconds. The default is 10 minutes on the console and 30 minutes
on VTY. Disable EXEC time out by setting the time-out period to 0.
LINE mode
exec-timeout minutes [seconds]
• Return to the default time-out values.
LINE mode
no exec-timeout
Example of Setting the Time Out Period for EXEC Privilege Mode
The following example shows how to set the time-out period and how to view the configuration using
the show config command from LINE mode.
Dell(conf)#line con 0
Dell(config-line-console)#exec-timeout 0
Dell(config-line-console)#show config

Using Telnet to Access Another Network Device
To telnet to another device, use the following commands.
NOTE: On the Z9500, the system allows 120 Telnet sessions per minute, allowing the login and
logout of 10 Telnet sessions, 12 times in a minute. If the system reaches this non-practical limit, the
Telnet service is stopped for 10 minutes. You can use console and SSH service to access the system
during downtime.
• Telnet to a device with an IPv4 or IPv6 address.
EXEC Privilege
telnet [ip-address]
If you do not enter an IP address, the system enters a Telnet dialog that prompts you for one.
Enter an IPv4 address in dotted decimal format (A.B.C.D).
Enter an IPv6 address in the format 0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000. Elision of zeros
is supported.
Example of the telnet Command for Device Access
