Cabletron Systems SmartSwitch manual User Mode

Chapter 1: SSR Product Overview

Note: The command prompt will show the name of the SmartSwitch Router in front of the mode character(s). The default name is “ssr”.

When you are in Configure or Enable mode, enter the exit command or press Ctrl+Z to exit to the previous access mode.

Note: When you exit Configure mode, the CLI will ask you whether you want to activate the configuration commands you have issued. If you enter Y (Yes), the configuration commands you issued are placed into effect and the SmartSwitch Router’s configuration is changed accordingly. However, the changes are not written to the Startup configuration file in the Control Module’s boot flash and, therefore, are not reinstated after a reboot.

User Mode

After you log in to the SSR, you are automatically in User mode. The User commands available are a subset of those available in Enable mode. In general, the User commands allow you to display basic information and use basic utilities such as ping information.

To list the User commands, enter:

?

The User mode command prompt consists of the SSR name followed by the angle bracket (>):

The default name is SSR unless it has been changed during initial configuration using the system set name command. Refer to the SmartSwitch Router Command Line Interface Reference Manual for information on the system facility.
