Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

If a login user does not perform any operation for a long time or needs to be prohibited from configuring the device, run the free user-interface command to disconnect the user from the user interface. The device then logs out the user.

Precautions

The free user-interface command does not take effect for the current user interface. For example, if the current user interface is VTY 2, the free user-interface vty 2 command does not take effect, and an error message is displayed.

This command provides the same function as the kill user-interface command.

Example

# Disconnect the user from user-interface 0.

<HUAWEI> free user-interface 0
Warning: User interface Console1 will be freed. Continue? [Y/N]:y
