Parameters
| Parameter | Description | Value |
|---|---|---|
| screen-length | Specifies the number of lines displayed on a terminal screen. | The value is an integer that ranges from 0 to 512. The value 0 indicates that all command output is displayed on one screen. |

Usage Guidelines
If a command output is displayed in more lines than you can see on one screen, run the screen-length command to reduce the number of lines displayed on each screen.
In general, you do not need to change the number of lines displayed on each screen. Setting the number of lines to 0 is not recommended. The configuration takes effect after you log in to the system again.
In the user view, the temporary parameter is mandatory, and this command is at the Monitoring level.
