Avaya P460 Sessions
You can use sessions to switch between P460 Supervisor modules or to switch
between Layer 2 and Layer 3 commands in the P460 CLI.
To switch between P460 modules use the command:
session
[<mod_num>] <mode> .
The <mod_num> is the number of the module in the chassis, counting from the top
down. The <mode> can be either switch or router. When Module Number is not
specified, the command switches between the modes in the local module. Use
switch
mode to configure layer 2 commands. Use router mode to configure routing
commands.
Example:
To configure router parameters in the module that you are currently logged into,
type the following command:
session router .
L When you use the session command the security level stays the same.
