Cisco Systems SCE 2000 4xGBE manual Configuring Initial Settings

Chapter 5 Connecting the Management Interfaces and Performing Initial System Configuration

Initial System Configuration

•In certain cases, there will be two or more logically related parameters within a menu. In these situations, it is not permitted to jump to the end of the setup dialog until all related parameters are configured. If you try to jump to the end of the setup dialog, the following message will

appear: “Sorry, Skipping is not allowed at this stage.”

•Certain groups of related parameters, such as time, date, and SNTP settings, form sub-dialogs or menus within the setup dialog. You may skip an entire menu, thereby accepting all default values for the parameters within the menu.

Each group of related parameters is prefaced by a question, asking whether you want to enter the menu. To skip the menu, answer no (“n”) to the question.

EXAMPLE:

Would you like to enter the SNMP configuration menu? n

•To abort the setup dialog at any point without making any configuration changes, press ^c. All changes already entered will be lost, with the exception of time settings.
