security session limit user show

Show per-user session limits

Availability: This command is available to cluster administrators at the advanced privilege level.

Description​

This command shows the per-user management session limits that have been configured for each interface, Vserver, and user.

Parameters​

{ [-fields <fieldname>, ...]
If you specify the -fields <fieldname>, ... parameter, the command output also includes the specified field or fields. You can use '-fields ?' to display the fields to specify.
| [-instance ]}
If you specify the -instance parameter, the command displays detailed information about all fields.
[-interface {cli|ontapi|rest}] - Interface
Selects the sessions that match this parameter value. This identifies the interface (CLI, ONTAPI, or REST) to which the limit applies.
[-vserver <vserver>] - Vserver
Selects the sessions that match this parameter value. This identifies the Vserver for the limit. The "Cluster" Vserver is used to limit Vservers that do not have a configured limit.
[-user <text>] - User
Selects the sessions that match this parameter value. This identifies the user for the limit. The limit with the user name -default- is the limit used for any user without a specific configured limit.
[-max-active-limit <integer>] - Max-Active Limit
Selects the sessions that match this parameter value. This identifies the configured limit that is used to throttle or reject requests.

Examples​

The following example illustrates displaying the per-user limits for CLI management sessions. In this example, there is a default limit of 4 sessions for each user. That limit is expanded to 8 for the admin Vserver. That limit is further expanded to 20 for the admin user in the admin Vserver. 

cluster1::*> security session limit user show -interface cli
Interface Vserver              User                Max-Active

cli       cluster1             -default-                    8
cli       cluster1             admin                       20
