Multiple Users in Configuration mode
FTOS notifies all users in the event that there are multiple users logged into CONFIGURATION mode. A
warning message indicates the username, type of connection (console or vty), and in the case of a vty
connection, the IP address of the terminal on which the connection was established. For example:
• On the system that telnets into the switch, Message 1 appears:
• On the system that is connected over the console, Message 2 appears:
If either of these messages appears, Dell Networking recommends that you coordinate with the users listed
in the message so that you do not unintentionally overwrite each other’s configuration changes.
Message 1 Multiple Users in Configuration mode Telnet Message
% Warning: The following users are currently configuring the system:
User "<username>" on line console0
Message 2 Multiple Users in Configuration mode Telnet Message
% Warning: User "<username>" on line vty0 "10.11.130.2" is in configuration mode
