Context
Console user interface attributes have default values on the device, and generally need no
modification. To meet specific user requirements or ensure network security, you can modify
console user interface attributes, such as terminal attributes and user authentication mode.
For detailed settings, see Configuring Console User Interface.
NOTE
Changes to console user interface attributes take effect immediately. Therefore, the connection may be
interrupted if console user interface attributes are modified when logged in to the device through the console
port. For this reason, logging into the device using another login mode is recommended when modifying
console user interface attributes. To log in to the device through the console port after changing the default
console user interface attributes, ensure that the configuration of the terminal emulator running on the PC
is consistent with the console user interface attributes configured on the device.
