LOGGING ON AND PERFORMING
A
DMINISTRATIVE TASKS
This chapter describes how to start up the system, log on, use the user
interface, and perform basic administrative tasks that you must complete
before configuring the ports and paths and bridging or routing protocols
that you plan to run on your bridge/router.
Table 9 summarizes the administrative tasks described in this chapter and
indicates whether performing each task is required, recommended, or
optional.
For more information on each of the commands and parameters used in
this section, see Reference for Enterprise OS Software.
Turning on the
System
To start up your bridge/router, plug one end of the power cord into the
rear panel of the bridge/router and the other end into your power outlet.
In addition, if you have a SuperStack II Redundant Power System (RPS),
attach one end of the RPS cable to the rear panel of the bridge/router and
the other end to the RPS.
