Special Keys
<Enter> or <Ctrl+M> | These keys are used to end the input of a value. |
<ESC> or <Ctrl+I> | These keys are used to cancel a selection or return to the previous menu. In |
| some isolated cases, this key jumps to the next menu in a series of menus at the |
| same level. |
<Backspace> or <Ctrl+H> | These keys have the expected effect of erasing previously typed characters. |
L | When available, this option displays the current configuration. For example, in |
| the Ethernet Interface Menu, “L” displays the Ethernet configuration. |
<Ctrl+L> | This key combination displays the same information as the L option, above, but |
| works like a toggle switch to allow display of one page of information at a time or |
| display the entire configuration without page breaks. |
<Ctrl+C> | This key combination disables any traces activated in the Debug Menu. |
On leaving a menu where a change in configuration was made, CyROS will ask whether or not the change is to be saved:
(D)iscard, save to (F)lash, or save to (R)un configuration:
Selecting Discard will undo all changes made since the last time the question was asked. Saving to Flash memory makes all changes permanent. The changes are immediately effective and are saved to the configuration vector in flash memory. In this case, the configuration is maintained even after a router reboot. Saving only to the Run configuration makes all changes effective immediately, but nothing is saved permanently until explicitly saved to flash (which can be done with the option ADMIN =>WRITE
CONFIGURATION=>TO FLASH).
The menus and parameter lists are represented in this manual by tables. The first column contains the menu item or the parameter, and the second column contains its description.
This menu interface is also available via Telnet if one of the interfaces has been connected and configured. The menu interface is the same as that described earlier in this section. Using Telnet instead of a console for the initial Ethernet configuration is discussed in Appendix C of the Installation Manual.
