3.3 Serial Port Logins
One way to connect to the MSS is to attach a terminal to the serial port and
press the Return key. If there is a problem during the boot process, you can
press any key to get the Boot prompt. This prompt enables you to enter a
special set of commands, called Boot ConÞguration Program (BCP)
commands, which are discussed in Appendix B.
If the unit passes its power-up diagnostics and completes the boot procedure,
the Local> prompt should be displayed. Proceed to Chapter 4 to conÞgure the
unit using the command line interface.
