Hi guys,
 
What's the difference between these 2 config's:
 
line vty 0 4
 session-timeout 15
 exec-timeout 5 0
 session-disconnect-warning 60
 login local
 
line vty 0 4
  absolute-timeout 15
  exec-timeout 5 0
  logout-warning 60
  login local
 
 
If, in this scenario, these 2 config's are functional equivalent, can
someone explain when and why I would use the first config?
 
TIA, Tim
