Enterasys Networks ELS10-27TX manual Overview, LCM Conventions

CHAPTER 2

ENHANCEMENTS TO LCM COMMANDS

2.1 OVERVIEW

The Local Console Manager (LCM) is a command-line interface built into the SmartSTACK Ethernet ELS10-27TX. The LCM enables you to monitor, manage, and configure the switch through the RS232C connection attached to any non- intelligent terminal or workstation running terminal emulation.

Two modified LCM commands were added that allow setting an address limit on a port and configuring destination IP addresses for traps. For information on these commands, refer to the section titled Enable Command (Address Limit) and the section titled Trap Control Command described later in this chapter.

2.2 LCM CONVENTIONS

The following conventions apply as you use LCM commands as needed by VLAN and Workgroups:

•Press the Enter key to execute a command after you type it in.

•A port range is either a single port number, or a list of port numbers separated by commas or hyphens. For example, 3 is port 3; 3,7 are ports 3 and 7; 3- 5 are ports 3,4, and 5; and 3-5,7are ports 3,4,5, and 7.

•To quit any command, press the Control-C keys (^C or Ctrl-C).

•Commands are not case sensitive.

•A previous command can be repeated by typing !!

•MAC addresses are displayed in little-endian Ethernet (least significant bit) bit order, with each octet separated by a colon. For example:

ELS10-27 >address 00:40:27:04:1a:0f

•Information that is optional with an LCM command is enclosed in square brackets [ ].

ELS10-27>workgroup [NAME [ad[d] [del[ete] PORT_RANGE]]
