Configuring Displayed Output Lines in CLI Terminal Window

You can configure the maximum number of lines (height) displayed in the terminal window for the output of CLI commands (Telnet and SSH). The number of displayed lines can be from 0 to 65,535, or determined by re-sizing the terminal window by mouse-dragging the window's border.

To specify the number of displayed output lines:
1. Establish a CLI session with the device.
2. Access the System menu:
# configure system
3. At the prompt, type the following command:
(config-system)# cli-terminal
4. At the prompt, type the following command:
<cli-terminal># window-height [0-65535]

If window-height is set to 0, the entire command output is displayed. In other words, even if the output extends beyond the visible terminal window length, the --MORE-- prompt is not displayed.

To configure the number of displayed output lines by dragging terminal window:
1. Establish a CLI session with the device.
2. Access the System menu:
# configure system
3. At the prompt, type the following command:
(config-system)# cli-terminal
4. At the prompt, type the following command:
<cli-terminal># window-height automatic 

When this mode is configured, each time you change the height of the terminal window using your mouse (i.e., dragging one of the window's borders or corners), the number of displayed output command lines is changed accordingly.
