logout
Logout the current user. The Login: prompt will be displayed.
passwd
Use this command to change the password (maximum length = 8 characters). You
will be prompted for the current password, and then a new password. When
entering a new password, asterisks are shown instead of the values entered, and
confirmation of the new password is requested. After verifying the new password,
the password is saved on the switch.

Reset the switch and the Ethernet port. When the switch resets, the telnet session is
terminated, requiring you to establish a new session to perform additional tasks.

set <command type>
The set command provides a means for altering the values of parameters as they
currently exist within the switch.
The available command types for the set command are (in alphabetical order):
addr monitor
config network
loop pagebreak
memory portrscn
It can be difficult to know what existing values are while making changes. One
method of knowing which values you are changing and which ones are having their
current value entered again, is to have two telnet sessions open at the same time.
By resizing each window, it is possible to display both windows concurrently. If
you do a show command that contains the settings desired in one window, and the
set command in the other window, it is possible to ensure that the desired settings
are be set correctly.
