init-nvram

Resets the NVRAM on the SNMP agent to default values. Changes don’t take effect until you use the warm-resetor cold-resetcommands or cycle the power. Default values are listed in Appendix A.

set-line-slip

set-line-slip {96001920038400}

Changes the console serial port to SLIP mode for out-of-band SNMP management. The argument to the command is the new baud rate for the interface. SLIP can be used with a terminal server but not with a modem. The SLIP interface can be configured using the set-slip-confconsole command. The serial port can be returned to console mode by pressing E three consecutive times from a terminal.

set-sw-file

set-sw-file <filename>

Sets the name of the file downloaded by TFTP (trivial file transfer protocol). This command is used in case of an update to the switch’s firmware. The file name must match the name of the agent software file on a TFTP server. When TFTP is used, the per-packet retransmission time-out value on the server (not the switch) must be increased to 10 seconds, since the SNMP agent must first erase its flash EEPROM, which takes about 30 seconds.
