Starting a Management Session

In order to manage an AT-8500 Series switch using command line
commands, you must first start a local or Telnet management session.
For instructions, refer to the AT-S62 Management Software Menus
Interface User’s Guide
.

The default management interface is the command line. The prompt
that you will see will differ depending on whether you logged in as
Manager or Operator. If you logged in as Manager, you will see “#.” If you
logged in as Operator, you will see “$.” You can now manage the switch
with the command line commands.

If you prefer to use the menu interface instead of the command line,
type MENU at the command prompt and press Return. To make the
menu interface as the default management interface, refer to SET
SWITCH CONSOLEMODE on page 28.

Note

Web browser management does not support the command line
interface.
