Console Cable Scrolling

mcole — Sat, 25 Feb 2012 20:27:37 GMT

I am having issues with console cable connectivity and scrolling when working in a box. Basically the short of it is, no matter what console program I use, albeit putty; I get about 40 lines shown, and when I go to view more it overwrites the bottom 20 to 30 and only leaves so much up top. Wierd thing on putty is... If you log into the box and do a show, it's fine and scrolls great, until I do a "show" again... Then it's back to similar syptoms. Same on a 500 or 2020, 4.1.2. Thanks!

Looks like if I just resize my session to 24ish lines it scrolls fine... Would like to be able to scroll the whole screen though.

Try entering the following command:

set cli terminal type putty

then restart your putty session.
