Commands

3.2.15 sequence

The sequence command edits the load/dump interface list. This list determines the order of the network interfaces, and either the local area network (LAN) or the SLIP interface the CSMIM-T1 will use for loading and dumping. The default, net, uses the LAN interface. The list can contain up to four interfaces. If the CSMIM-T1 fails to boot using the first interface, it will try the next, and then the next interface, and then repeat the sequence. The command syntax is:

sequence [–d] [interface[,interface]. . .]

Specify the LAN interface by selecting net; specify each SLIP interface as slnn, where nn is a port number; and specify self-boot by selecting self. Separate each interface with a comma or a space. Enter the interface list as an argument to the command; otherwise, the console displays a list of available interfaces and prompts for a new list.

In the following example, interfaces are assigned to the load/dump sequence list. Ports 12, 14, and 15 can be added to the list because they were configured earlier as SLIP interfaces:

monitor:: sequence

Enter a list of 1 to 4 interfaces to attempt to use for downloading code or upline dumping. Enter them in the order they should be tried, separated by commas or spaces. Possible interfaces are:

Ethernet: net

SL/IP: sl12,sl14,s115

SELF: self

Enter interface sequence [net]:: sl12, net

Interface sequence: sl12,net

NOTE

The SELF option appears only if the self-boot image is loaded.
