Force10 S4810 "show interface" without more possible?
If running an SSH client to utilize the "show interface" command to the Force10 S4810 switch, it (by default) returns the output of the command as though it was piped into a 'more' command, i.e....
show interface | more
Is it possible to change this behaviors, so that command that are sent return their output as a constant stream of lines, instead of abbreviated with "--More--" requests awaiting user input?
Hi, thanks for choosing Dell. "Is it possible to change this behaviors, so that command that are sent return their output as a constant stream of lines, instead of abbreviated with "--More--" requests awaiting user input?" I'm afraid your ask isn't possible. May I ask what you are after with the changed behavior?

Since te S4810 does not support Rexec commands for the 'single-line command' retrieval of information via SSH, I am using a full SSH session via command line. However, since the S4810 does not send all the information in one output after receving a command such as 'show', it stops after some lines (of which there are an known number) with a "more" prompt (or many of them), requiring the manual sending of a space bar or enter key every time. This significantly show the retrieval as well.
Ideally, the default behavior would be that commands return their output all in one return, and if the user wishes to use "more", it would be up to the user to pipe the output of their requested command to the 'more' command.
