DGS-1520 Series Gigabit Ethernet Smart Managed Switch CLI Reference Guide Example This example shows how to configure the console session to never timeout. Switch#configure terminal Switch(config)#line console Switch(config-line)#session-timeout 0 Switch(config-line)# 5-26 terminal width The command is used to set the number of character columns on the terminal screen for the current session line. The terminal width command will only affect the current session. The terminal width default command will set the default value, but it does not affect any current sessions. Use the no form of this command to revert to the default setting. terminal width NUMBER no terminal width terminal width default NUMBER no terminal width default Parameters NUMBER Specifies the number of characters to display on the screen. Valid values are from 40 to 255. Default By default, this value is 80 characters. Command Mode Use the User/Privileged EXEC Mode for the terminal width command. Use the Global Configuration Mode for the terminal width default command. Command Default Level Level: 1 (for the terminal width command). Level: 12 (for the terminal width default command). Usage Guideline By default, the Switch's system terminal provides a screen display width of 80 characters. The terminal width command changes the terminal width value which applies only to the current session. When changing the value in a session, the value applies only to that session. When the no form of this command is used, the number of lines in the terminal display screen is reset to the default, which is 80 characters. The terminal width default command is available in the Global Configuration Mode. The command setting does not affect the current existing terminal sessions but affect the new terminal sessions that are activated later and just the global terminal width value can be saved. However, for remote CLI session access such as Telnet, the auto-negotiation terminal width result will take precedence over the default setting if the negotiation is successful. Otherwise, the default settings take effect. 92
