Command Reference Guide

set prompt 53

set prompt Changes the CLI prompt for the WX switch to a string you specify.

Syntax —

set prompt string

 string — Alphanumeric string up to 32 characters long. To include

spaces in the prompt, you must enclose the string in double quotation

marks (“”).

Defaults — The factory default for the WX switch name is the model

number (WX1200 for the 3Com Wireless LAN Switch WX1200, WX4400

for the 3Com Wireless LAN Controller WX4400, WXR100 for the 3Com

Remote Office Wireless LAN Switch) followed by the last three octets of

the switch’s MAC address.

Access — Enabled.

History — Introduced in MSS Version 3.0.

Usage — When you first log in for the initial configuration of the WX

switch, the CLI provides a WXR100>, WX1200> or WX4400> prompt,

depending on your model. After you become enabled by typing enable

and giving a suitable password, the WXR100#, WX1200# or WX4400#

prompt is displayed.

If you use the set system name command to change the default system

name, MSS uses that name in the prompt, unless you also change the

prompt with set prompt.

Examples — The following example sets the prompt from WX4400 to

happy_days:

WX4400# set prompt happy_days

success: change accepted.

happy_days#
