How can I remove the number after switch name?

How can I remove the number after switch name?

I have connected to the switch using a telnet session. The prompt that I have looks something like this:

switchName.1 #

After issuing a command the number right after the switch name increments. So the prompt is:

switchName.2 #

For different reasons I don't want to see that number. Is there a way I could remove that number?

Hi Ali,
Welcome to The Hub!

Unfortunately, there is no way to disable the command count on the CLI.

Hi Ali,

When you login into the switch it starts with #1 that represents the next CLI number/position in history buffer.

As far as I know there is no CLI to clear or disable this counter.

If you logout/login you can get the initial value #1

Hi Henrique,

Thanks. Yes, I figured it out but I was hoping there is an easier way.

Are the number of commands you've executed on the switch.

Currently there is no way to remove it. Sorry
