The Boot Options Menu, accessed by pressing Enter during the power-up sequence, provides the ability to upgrade switch software by establishing a trivial file transfer protocol (TFTP) link (see “Upgrading Switch Software Through TFTP Connection” on page 3-23).

Upon successful completion of the power-upself-tests, the switch is ready for normal operation. If you have a terminal or console connected to the switch, the Main Menu is displayed unless it is the initial power-up sequence of the switch or a Reset to Defaults was performed. In the latter two cases, the switch displays the Language selection menu where you can select one of seven languages to display the user interface (see “Selecting a Language” on page 2-16).
