Switch Installation and Setup

Using the Console

All console commands use the syntax:

operator switch-attribute [ ... ]

Where the operator is one of the following:

show

(

display

): Show the current values used by a switch-attribute.

add

(

create

): Add a new instance of a switch-attribute.

delete

(

remove

): Delete an instance of a switch-attribute.

modify

(

set

): Change the values that currently define a switch-attribute.

start

: Start a process on the switch; for example, start the LAN Emulation Configuration Server.

restart

: Restart a process on the switch; for example, restart a client.

flush

: Remove assigned values; for example, flush a route table.

alias

: Create easier names for often-used commands and their parameters.

Entering parameters at the command line is optional. If a command requires parameter values, it prompts you for them.
For instance, in the example below,

show

is the operator,

portconfig

is the switch-attribute, and

a1

is the parameter

indicating that you want to show configuration information about port

A1

.
