====== Cisco Misc info ======

===== Page Breaks (in sh run etc..) =====


To stop the page breaks:
  
  # terminal length 0
  
To resume them:
  
  # terminal no length 0 (or number ex. 24)

===== Capture console messages to VTY =====

Console messages are not usually logged to a telnet / ssh vty session, ''term mon'' enables this and ''no term mon'' disables.

  # terminal monitor

===== Usernames in logins =====

<code>
sw-1(config)#service password-encryption
sw-1(config)#username myuser password topsecret
</code>

This results in:-

  sw-1#sh run
  Building configuration...
  ...edited...
    username myuser password 7 <encrypted password>

Each line needs to be configured to use the local password database:-

<code>
sw-1(config)#line vty 0 4
sw-1(config-line)#login local
</code>



===== SSH access to switch =====


==== Config ssh ====

<code>
sw-1(config)#ip ssh version 2
crypto key generate rsa modulus 2048
ip ssh time-out 60  
ip ssh authentication-retries 3 
</code>

See also [[networking:cisco-3750-ssh|ssh to Cisco 3750]] for resolving issues with cyphers and hashs.

==== SSH protocol mismatch ====

See [[networking:cisco-3750-ssh|ssh to Cisco 3750]] to see how to edit your  ''~/.ssh/config'' file to fix this.


==== Force ssh only by disabling telnet ====


<code>
line vty 0 4
 password 7 07062341165B4150
 login local
 transport input ssh
line vty 5 15
 password 7 07062341165B4150
 login local
 transport input ssh
</code>


==== Power over Ethernet control ====

<code>
3750-1#conf t
3750-1(config)#interface fastEthernet 1/0/13
3750-1(config-if)#power inline ?
  auto         Automatically detect and power inline devices
  consumption  Configure the inline device consumption
  never        Never apply inline power
  static       High priority inline power interface

3750-1(config-if)#power inline never 
3750-1(config-if)#power inline auto
