Observing the Power-On Self Test
When the FORMULA 8200 is powered on, it automatically runs a
power-on self-test (POST) to verify that all components are
functioning normally.
As POST verifies the basic operation of the switch, it displays a series
of messages on the console. A similar screen display appears:
Boot POST in progress...
