50CHAPTER 3: SYSTEM SERVICE COMMANDS

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).

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 WX1200> or WX4400> prompt, depending on your model. After you become enabled by typing enable and giving a suitable password, the 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#
