Command Reference

Change Backward Switch

2-14

2.6 Change Backward Switch

Defines a key that will switch the user to a previous session without entering local mode. From local mode,
the key functions as if the Backward command was entered. Any key can be specified unless it conflicts
with MSS line editing or the Break or Forward keys. The key you specify will be stripped from the data
stream, so while it won’t interfere with remote operating systems, you will lose any functionality that key
would have on local programs.

Restrictions

Requires privileged user status.

Parameters

Port

MSS4 only. Specifies a particular port or group of ports.

Note:

In the absence of the Portlist parameter, the configuration will affect the MSS4’s
current port only.

PortList

Specify a particular port or group of ports. Port numbers are specified with
integers between 1 and 4, and should be separated with commas (for lists) or
dashes (for ranges).

character

Specifies a character to serve as the switch key. To specify a control character,
use escaped hex (\xx). For example, Ctrl-B (ASCII character 0x02) would be
specified as \02.

None

Clears any previously-defined Backward Switch key.

Defaults

No switch

2.7 Change Bootgateway

Specifies the IP address of a server to send packets to when downloading code. Setting a bootgateway
allows the MSS to download via a router without the router needing proxy arp support.

Note:

A bootgateway host is not the loadhost—the packets will be addressed to the
loadhost, but will be physically sent to the bootgateway host.
