DGS-6604 m terminal width terminal width This command sets the number of character columns on the terminal screen for the current lines displayed in a session. The terminal width command will only affect the current session. If option default is specified, the display length will be applied to all subsequent sessions and will be stored in the system configuration (start-up config) to retain the setting for the next system restart. terminal width CHARACTERS [default] no terminal width Syntax Description CHARACTERS Specfies the number of characters to display on the screen; valid values are from 80 to 255. Default default (Optional) Sets the number of columns in the terminal display screen for the current administration session and all other subsequent sessions. This setting can be saved into the system configuration file (start-up config) and retained for the next system restart (Privileged EXEC only). Default Command Mode Usage Guideline Examples CHARACTERS: 80 characters User EXEC By default, the switch system terminal provides a screen display width of 80 characters. Reset this value for the current session if it does not meet the needs of required for the terminal display. Unless the default keyword is used, a change to the terminal width value applies only to the current session. When the value in a session is changed, the value applies only to that session. When the no form of this command is used, then the number of lines in the terminal display screen is reset to the default of 80 characters. For a remote CLI session access such as Telnet, the auto negotiation result of terminal width will take precedence over the global configuration if the negotiation is successful. Otherwise, the global configuration takes effect. After that, adjust the line and width for the current session (this change will not be saved in the system configuration for the next system restart). This will not affect other sessions or the global configuration. When exiting from the current session, the values of the terminal line and width is reset back to the system configuration values (it may not be same as the default setting, 80 characters; it is dependant on the current system configuration setting). The following example shows how to adjust the current session terminal width to 120 characters. The system terminal setting is not affected by the change. That is because the adjustment is only applied to the current session. Switch#terminal width 120 CLI Reference Guide 880
