Terminal Services Commands on Cisco IOS XR Software
This chapter describes the Cisco IOS XR commands used for setting up physical and virtual terminal connections, managing terminals, and configuring virtual terminal line (vty) pools.
For detailed information about configuring physical and virtual terminals, see the Implementing Physical and Virtual Terminals on Cisco IOS XR Software module in Cisco IOS XR System Management Configuration Guide.
absolute-timeout
To set the absolute timeout for line disconnection, use the absolute-timeout command in line template configuration mode. To remove the absolute-timeout command from the configuration file and restore the system to its default condition, use the no form of this command.
absolute-timeout minutes
no absolute-timeout minutes
Syntax Description
Defaults
minutes: 1440
Command Modes
Line template configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of the Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
Use the absolute-timeout command to terminate the connection after the specified time has elapsed, regardless of whether the connection is being used at the time of termination. You can specify an absolute-timeout value for each port. The user is notified 20 seconds before the session is terminated.
Task ID
Examples
The following example shows how to set the session timeout value to 2880 minutes (2 days) for the default line template:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# line defaultRP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-line)# absolute-timeout 2880Related Commands

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of the Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
Use the access-class command to restrict incoming or outgoing connections to addresses defined in an access list. Use the ipv4 access-list or ipv6 access-list command to define an access list by name.
Note
To restrict access of incoming or outgoing connections over IPv4 and IPv6, the IPv4 access list and IPv6 access list must share the same name.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of the Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
Use the banner exec command to specify a message that is displayed when an EXEC process is created (a line is activated or an incoming connection is made to a vty). Follow this command with one or more blank spaces and the delimiting character (c). After entering one or more lines of text, terminate the message with the delimiting character (c).
When a user connects to a router, the message-of-the-day (MOTD) banner appears first, followed by the login banner and prompts. After the user logs in to the router, the EXEC banner or incoming banner is displayed, depending on the type of connection. For a reverse Telnet login, the incoming banner is displayed. For all other connections, the router displays the EXEC banner.
Use tokens in the form $(token) in the message text to customize the banner. Tokens display current configuration variables, such as the router hostname and IP address.
The tokens are described in Table 93.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of the Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
Follow the banner incoming command with one or more blank spaces and the delimiting character (c). After entering one or more lines of text, terminate the message with the second occurrence of the delimiting character (c).
An incoming connection is one initiated from the network side of the router. Incoming connections are also called reverse Telnet sessions. These sessions can display message-of-the-day (MOTD) banners and incoming banners, but they do not display EXEC banners.
When a user connects to a router, the MOTD banner (if configured) appears first, followed by the login banner and prompts. After the user logs in to the router, the EXEC banner or incoming banner is displayed, depending on the type of connection. For a reverse Telnet login, the incoming banner is displayed. For all other connections, the router displays the EXEC banner.
Incoming banners cannot be suppressed. If you do not want the incoming banner to appear, you must delete it with the no banner incoming command.
To customize the banner, use tokens in the form $(token) in the message text. Tokens display current variables, such as the router hostname and IP address. Tokens are described in Table 94.

Follow the banner login command with one or more blank spaces and the delimiting character (c). Then enter one or more lines of text, terminating the message with the second occurrence of the delimiting character (c).
When a user connects to the router, the message-of-the-day (MOTD) banner (if configured) appears first, followed by the login banner and prompts. After the user successfully logs in to the router, the EXEC banner or incoming banner is displayed, depending on the type of connection. For a reverse Telnet login, the incoming banner is displayed. For all other connections, the router displays the EXEC banner.
To customize the banner, use tokens in the form $(token) in the message text. Tokens display current configuration variables, such as the router hostname and IP address.
Tokens are described in Table 95.

Follow this command with one or more blank spaces and the delimiting character (c). Then enter one or more lines of text, terminating the message with the second occurrence of the delimiting character (c).
This MOTD banner is displayed to all terminals connected and is useful for sending messages that affect all users (such as impending system shutdowns). Use the no motd-banner command to disable the MOTD banner on a line.
When a user connects to the router, the MOTD banner (if configured) appears first, followed by the login banner and prompts. After the user successfully logs in to the router, the EXEC banner or incoming banner is displayed, depending on the type of connection. For a reverse Telnet login, the incoming banner is displayed. For all other connections, the router displays the EXEC banner.
To customize the banner, use tokens in the form $(token) in the message text. Tokens display current configuration variables, such as the router hostname and IP address.

SSH and Telnet sessions can be established to another router or server.
When the network session is being established and without disconnecting the network session, you can resume the router console session by typing a special sequence of characters as shown. After switching back to the router console, the network connection can be resumed by specifying the number of the connection or the name of the connection.
You can have several concurrent sessions open and switch back and forth between them. The number of sessions that can be open is defined using the session-limit command.
You can switch between sessions by escaping one session and resuming a previously opened session, as follows:
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
You can also resume the previous session by pressing the Return key.
The ^^X and resume commands are available for all supported connection protocols.

Use the transport preferred command to provide a default transport protocol to use when initiating outgoing connections. The preferred outgoing transport protocol specified with the transport preferred command enables you to initiate an outgoing connection without explicitly specifying the transport protocol.
The Cisco IOS XR software assumes that any unrecognized command is a hostname and the software attempts a connection. When the protocol is set to none, the system ignores unrecognized commands entered at the EXEC prompt, and does not attempt a connection.
The default setting, the transport preferred none command, prevents errant connection attempts.
