CHAPTER 7
The Operations Menu
The Operations Menu is generally used for commands that affect switch performance immedi-
ately, but do not alter permanent switch configurations. For example, you can use the Opera-
tions Menu to immediately disable a port (without the need to apply or save the change), with
the understanding that when the switch is reset, the port returns to its normally configured
operation.
/oper
