Cisco AP1231 Telne timeout

I am trying to do an extended debug on my APs and wish to keep a telnet session open for 5,6 hours at a crack.

Try mixing in: "exec-timeout "

Another point ... if you are trying to collect debug output across your IOS devices across a long period of time ... here are some alternatives:

- set up a syslog server and log your messages to it

- configure "logging buffered debugging", where is some value that is large enough to capture all the debugging messages of interest before the buffer wraps, yet is comfortably smaller than your available free processor memory. Then suck out the buffer contents with: undebug all / terminal length 0 Then either "show log" to a captured terminal session, or use "show log | redirect "
