Using the Command Prompt
In addition to the menu-based part of the switch console, under the Diagnos-
tics Menu, a command-line based interface is available. The commands are

Prompt from the Diagnostics Menu presents a command prompt from which
you can enter the following commands:
To get a definition of these commands and their syntax, enter Help at the
command prompt. When you see -- MORE -- at the bottom of the screen:
■ To advance the display one line at a time, use [Enter].
■ To advance the display one screen at a time, use the Space bar.
If you want to stop the help listing, press [Q].

then select 4. Command Prompt from the Diagnostics Menu.

the prompt matches the System Name parameter. For example, in the
