Enabling the GUI

To enable the GUI, an IP address must be assigned to a switch interface, and the GUI must be enabled, using the CLI. Use the command:

ENABLE GUI

Manager account privileges are required to enable the switch GUI, but manager privileges are not required to use the GUI once it is enabled. Therefore, managers should ensure the physical security of the switch.

Enable AT-RPFL3Upgrade Feature Licence

If you have purchased an advanced feature upgrade licence it must be enabled before you can use the advanced routing features. You will need the password provided by your authorised Allied Telesyn distributor or reseller. The advanced upgrade licence and password are different from the standard software release licence and password. The licence cannot be transferred from one switch to another.

The password for a special feature licence is a string of at least 16 hexadecimal characters, and encodes the special feature or features covered by the license, and the switch serial number. The password information is stored in the switch’s FLASH memory.

To enable or disable the AT-RPFL3Upgrade use the commands:

ENABLE FEATURE=AT-RPFL3Upgrade PASSWORD=password

DISABLE FEATURE=AT-RPFL3Upgrade

Other features on the switch, such as Firewall, Remote Secure Shell and Triple DES encryption, and support for Public Key Infrastructure may also need special feature licences. To list the current special feature licences use the command:
