Hi guys,
This is the output of the show terminal command:
Notice that there are some references to "session".
I'm trying to understand what that's all about.
Rack1R1#sh term
Line 0, Location: "", Type: ""

Baud rate (TX/RX) is 9600/9600, no parity, 2 stopbits, 8 databits

Idle Session Disconnect Warning

I also noticed that there are several commands that can be used with regard to
sessions.
For example,
Rack1R1(config)#line con 0
Rack1R1(config-line)#session?
session-disconnect-warning session-limit session-timeout
What I don't understand is what does "session" mean in the context of the
console line?
Does this mean there can be multiple sessions to the console line? Is that
possible? How?
Why, for example, is a session-timeout command needed when there's already an
exec-timeout command?
Can someone explain the logic behind this?
Thanks in advance, Tim
