Set Terminal Pager defaults

Brian Bergin — Fri, 21 Feb 2020 13:43:40 GMT

For an ASA 5510 on 6.3(3), how do I get:

terminal pager 24

To stick? Somehow on one of our older ASA's no matter what I do, it always pager disabled so it just scrolls without stopping. I need it to stop ever 24 lines or 50 lines or whatever I set and have to remember that every single time I log in.\

BTW, someone posted and that apparently deleted the suggestion:

Have you tried setting it under the line settings

line vty 0 4

length 40(or whatever)

Those appear to be invalid commands on an ASA either in enable mode or config mode:

asa5510> en
Password: *****
asa5510# line vty 0 4
^
ERROR: % Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
asa5510# config t
asa5510(config)# line vty 0 4
^
ERROR: % Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
asa5510(config)#

Thanks...

If you enter "terminal pager

If you enter "terminal pager 24" from CONFIG mode, it should stick. If you enter it from just plain EXEC mode, it will only affect the logged in session.

Hope this helps.

I think the correct command is, in config mode:

pager lines 50
