USER’S GUIDE
514 CyberSWITCH
logout
Terminates the administration session by logging-out the current administrator. You can start
another session by using one of the two log-in commands outlined above.
pswd
Changes the password for the current access level (administrator or guest). Your password
must be a 3 to 8 nonblank character string. Be careful, passwords are uppercase and lowercase
sensitive.
SETTING THE IP ADDRESS
The following administrative command allows you to make changes to the system’s default IP
address without using the CFGEDIT utility. The system handles this command as if you were in
CFGEDIT mode, and saves changes automatically. You must then
restart
your system in order
to have these saved changes take effect. To change the system’s default IP address, issue the
following command:
ipconfig
Allows you to change default IP address information by prompting you for the following:
•IP address
• number of significant bits in subnet mask
• IP address of default gateway (or “0” if none)
After responding to the prompts, the system will ask you if you wish to restart the system in
order to put into effect these changes.
BOOT DEVICE COMMANDS
System software consists of three distinct parts: the boot device, the flash file system, and
operational software. The system boot is accomplished in two stages: the first stage boot (FSB) and
the second stage boot (SSB).
When the boot device is executing, there may be occasion to issue commands to affect the boot
process. However, this situation is highly unusual, and should only be performed under the
recommendation of Customer Support personnel. In addition, these commands may be issued only
using the local console (RS232) port.
Once the FSB has initialized the hardware, it displays a brief inventory of the CyberSWITCH,
including version number, serial number, and MAC Ethernet address. It then prompts you with the
following:
Waiting for Commands:
Following this prompt, there is a 10-second window (between the first and second stage boot) for
you to enter a boot device command. Normally, you need not enter a command, and the boot
process continues to the second stage. However, the following commands are available during this
10-second interval:
