What is a
reference guide

This manual is a reference guide. It provides information concerning unit
configuration, cabling, and testing/troubleshooting on a function-by-function basis.
It is not a users guide containing step-by-step procedures. This manual is designed
to be used when you need specific information about a command, menu field, port,
etc. Unless otherwise noted, the information in this guide applies only to the
PRISM 4101 (also referred to as the unit).
