saved.) Press

versa.

—copies a Port record's database values to another port's record, then

deletes the original record. After you perform this operation, the "moved to" record
will be displayed, with the new database values. (The original record is automatically

to update the system memory values.

You cannot move a physical port's record to a logical port, or vice
versa.

rebooting the remote node, and returns control to the local operator.

Reboot Remote
