level ] command, as listed in Table 19.
Configuration Example Network requirements
Perform the following configuration for users logging in through the Console
port:
Configure the name of the local user to be “guest”.
Set the authentication password of the local user to 1234567890 (in plain
text).
Set the service type of the local user to Terminal, the available command level
of the user to 2.
Set history command buffer size history-command
max-size value
Optional
The default history
command buffer size is
10. That is, a history
command buffer can
store up to 10
commands by default.
Set the timeout time for the user
interface
idle-timeout minutes
[ seconds ]
Optional
The default timeout
time of a user interface
