Switch Installation and Setup Using the Console
modify (alias = 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.
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, client is the switch-attribute, and 1 is the parameter
indicating that you want to show information about "client 1".
SmartCell ZX # show client 1

If you don't specify parameters with the command, the console prompts you for a choice and provides a default value
displayed in parentheses. For example, if you enter
show client without specifying a client (as a parameter), the
following appears:
SmartCell ZX # show client
ClientNumber(ALL) :
Here, the default of " all " clients is presented. You can either accept the default by pressing Enter, or you can enter a
specific client number. Accepting the default displays the following:
SmartCell ZX # show client
ClientNumber(ALL) :<Enter>
Client Type IP Address Server Type Server Conn Status

2 IP/ATM 200.50.50.254 Local Established Operational

SmartCell ZX #
When you accept the ( all ) default for show , the information displayed is often
condensed.
Adding and Modifying
The add and modify operators often need parameters. You can enter these parameters on the command line before
entering the command. If you don't enter the parameters, the switch prompts you for values.
