Variable Value
Important:
Do not change this parameter unless directed
by Avaya.
rlogind Activates or disables the rlogin and rsh server. The
default value is disabled.
spanning-tree-mode <mstp|rstp> Specifies the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol or
Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol mode. If you do not
specify a protocol, the switch uses the default mode.
The default mode is mstp. If you change the
spanning tree mode, you must save the current
configuration and restart the switch.
spbm-config-mode Enables you to configure SPB and IS-IS, but you
cannot configure PIM and IGMP either globally or on
an interface.
Use the no operator so that you can configure PIM
and IGMP.
The boot flag is enabled by default. To set this flag
to the default value, use the default operator with the
command.
sshd Activates or disables the SSHv2 server service. The
default value is disabled.
telnetd Activates or disables the Telnet server service. The
default is disabled.
tftpd Activates or disables Trivial File Transfer Protocol
server service. The default value is disabled.
trace-logging Activates or disables the creation of trace logs. The
default value is disabled.
Important:
Do not change this parameter unless directed
by Avaya.
verify-config Activates syntax checking of the configuration file.
The default is enabled.
• Primary config behavior: When the verifyconfig flag
is enabled, the primary config file is pre-checked
for syntax errors. If the system finds an error, the
primary config file is not loaded, instead the
system loads the backup config file.
If the verify-config flag is disabled, the system
does not pre-check syntax errors. When the verify-
config flag is disabled, the system ignores any
lines with errors during loading of the primary
config file. If the primary config file is not present or
Table continues…
