Using the Console Manager
The Console Manager provides an out-of-band (not on the network)
connection to the switch. Use the Console Manager to
•
assign an IP configuration to the switch.
•
configure the ports.
•
monitor network performance.
•
create VLANs.
Entering commands
To enter commands, type the command name followed by any
parameters and press
E
. For example, typing
sys-stat
E
at the command prompt displays basic system status information.
Items in angle brackets represent values. For example,
<IPaddress>
represents an IP address in dotted decimal notation (such as
123.1.1.7).
Items in { } and separated by | represent alternatives for an
argument. For example,
get-comm {read|write|*}
means you can type one of the following
get-comm read
get-comm write
get-comm *
If you enter a command incorrectly, a message indicates the type of
error that occurred. For example, typing a nonexistent command gives
the following message:
SYS_console> pin
command <pin> not found
If the command exists but the number of parameters is incorrect, the
following message is displayed:
SYS_console> ping
too few arguments
