BOOT Menu
Description
The BOOT Menu provides a quick way to troubleshoot some of the basic settings of the 470 switches. Normally, you don’t need to use the BOOT Menu. You can access the BOOT Menu by connecting to the switch’s serial port.
To access the BOOT Menu, press c+ C while the switch is starting up. The menu shown above appears. Most of the options available from the BOOT Menu are simplified versions of Local Management, and navigating the screens works the same.
Configure IP address: Configures the switch’s IP address.
Display switch information: Configures identification and displays hardware information about the switch.
Update firmware and configuration files: Configures the switch’s internal software. Also used to specify the location of configuration files.
Reset and console options: Resets the switch to factory defaults to configure the port mode for the switch’s serial port. Also sets the console timeout.
SAVE SETTINGS: Saves the changes to the switch’s flash memory.
RESUME BOOT: Resumes the switch’s boot process and loading of the firmware.
