Increasing Frame

Size (Jumbo

Frames)

The jumbo frame command allows an interface on the switch to accept
large or jumbo frames which are Ethernet frames with greater than 1,500
bytes of payload (MTU). The syntax of the jumbo frame command is:

mtu <64-9216>

To allow jumbo frames to be accepted by port 7, enter the following
commands:

switch# configure terminal

switch(config)# interface ge7

switch(config-if)# mtu 1518

For more information about this command, see “MTU” on page 178.

Saving the

Configuration

To save the current configuration of your switch, use the COPY command.
The syntax of this command is:

copy running-config startup-config

In the following example, the running configuration file is copied to the
startup configuration file which is named “startup-config.”

The software displays:

Building configuration...

[OK]

For more information about this command, see “COPY” on page 81.

Adding a User

Name and

Password

To add new users to the switch, you create a user name, determine a
privilege level, and assign a password. These tasks are accomplished with
the USERNAME command. The syntax of this command is:

username WORD privilege <1-15> password LINE <8>

Note

By default, the AT-S100 software provides one USERNAME named
“manager” with “friend” as the default password. A manager login
has permission to perform all of the AT-S100 software commands in
all of the command modes.

privilege

Specifies a user privilege level. Enter a value between 1 and

15. Values 1 through 14 provide operator privileges. Value 15
provides an administrator, or manager, privileges.
