9. UNIT OPERATION
The switch is factory pre-programmed with firmware and default switching configuration
to operate as a standalone “layer 2” switch. After power on, the Metro-Switch will
initialize and begin to operate a layer 2 switch. This requires no operator intervention
and all ports are enabled and will begin to switch traffic based on layer 2 MAC
addresses.
9.1 SERIAL PORT CLI COMMAND LINE INTERFACE
The serial port console Command Line Interface (CLI) provides a User Interface for the
purpose of local management and is used for Configuration, Status, Statistics and
Diagnostic functions. The CLI command line interface is available via the serial port
(typically connected to PC and used with terminal emulator window). Configuration
functions are provided for general switch parameters, layer 2 switch configuration, layer
3 IP routing table configuration, trunking, mirroring and filtering.
When power is applied to the Metro-Switch and the serial port console is connected and
configured, the following message will be displayed:
