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 kill user-interface command to disconnect the user from the user interface. The device then logs out the user.
Precautions
The kill user-interface command does not take effect for the current user interface. For example, if the current user interface is VTY 2, the kill user-interface vty 2 command does not take effect, and an error message is displayed.
This command provides the same function as the free user-interface command.
