Menu Summary
Information Menu
Provides sub-menus for displaying information about the current status of the switch:
from basic system settings to VLANs, and more.
Statistics Menu
Provides sub-menus for displaying switch performance statistics. Included are port, IF, IP,
ICMP, TCP, UDP, SNMP, routing, ARP, DNS, and VRRP statistics.
Configuration Menu
This menu is available only from an administrator login. It includes sub-menus for config-
uring every aspect of the switch. Changes to configuration are not active until explicitly
applied. Changes can be saved to non-volatile memory.
Operations Command Menu
Operations-level commands are used for making immediate and temporary changes to
switch configuration. This menu is used for bringing ports temporarily in and out of ser-
vice, performing port mirroring, and enabling or disabling Server Load Balancing func-
tions. It is also used for activating or deactivating optional software packages.
Boot Options Menu
This menu is used for upgrading switch software, selecting configuration blocks, and for
resetting the switch when necessary.
Maintenance Menu
This menu is used for debugging purposes, enabling you to generate a dump of the critical
state information in the switch, and to clear entries in the forwarding database and the
ARP and routing tables.
