CHAPTER 5: Operation
To enable/disable the automated mode, access the General Parameters menu and proceed as described in Section 4.4. When the automated mode is enabled, Switch functions will change as follows:
1.All password security suppressed: When you attempt to access the Switch’s command mode, the password prompt will not be displayed at either the Telnet port, modem port, or console port. Unless restricted by the IP Security function, you will be allowed to access system level command functions and control both plugs. At the console port, all commands are immediately accepted, whether the port is awake or asleep.
2.Status screen suppressed: The status screen will not be automatically displayed after commands are successfully executed. Note however, that the /S command can still be invoked to display the status screen as required.
3.“Sure?” prompt suppressed: All commands are executed without prompting for user confirmation.
4.Error messages suppressed: If the [Enter] key is pressed without entering a command, the Switch will not respond with the “Invalid Command” message. Note, however, that an error message will still be generated if commands are invoked using invalid formats or arguments.
All other status display and configuration commands will still function as normal.
