Command Line (CLI):

Selects the Command Line Interface at the same

level (Manager or Operator) that you are accessing in the Menu interface.
(See chapter 3, “Using the Command Line Interface (CLI).”)

Reboot Switch:

Performs a “warm” reboot of the switch, which clears

most temporary error conditions, resets the network activity counters to
zero, and resets the system up time to zero. A reboot is required to activate
a change in the VLAN Support parameter. (See “Rebooting from the Menu
Interface” on page C-8.)

Download OS:

Enables you to download a new software version to the

switch. (See appendix A, “Transferring an Operating System or Configu-
ration.”)

Run Setup:

Displays the Switch Setup screen for quickly configuring

basic switch parameters such as IP addressing, default gateway, logon
default interface, spanning tree, and others. (See the Installation Guide
shipped with your switch.)

Stacking:

Enables you to use a single IP address and standard network

cabling to manage a group of up to 16 switches in the same subnet
(broadcast domain). See “Stack Management” on page 9-2.

Logout:

Closes the Menu interface and console session, and disconnects

Telnet access to the switch. (See “How to End a Menu Session and Exit
from the Console” on page 2-4.)
