Command Prompts

By default, the MSS CLI provides the following prompt for restricted users. The mmmm portion shows the DWS switch model number (for example, 1008) and the nnnnnn portion shows the last 6 digits of the switch’s media access control (MAC) address.

DWS-mmmm-nnnnnn>

After you become enabled as an administrative user by typing enable and supplying a suitable password, MSS displays the following prompt:

DWS-mmmm-nnnnnn#

For ease of presentation, this manual shows the restricted and enabled prompts as follows:

DWS-1008>

DWS-1008#

For information about changing the CLI prompt on an DWS switch, see set prompt on page 22.
