$ SET HOST/LAT MSS_xxxxxx

3.3 Serial Port Logins

One way to connect to the MSS is to attach a terminal to the serial port and press the Return key. If there is a problem during the boot process, you can press any key to get the Boot prompt. This prompt enables you to enter a special set of commands, called Boot ConÞguration Program (BCP) commands, which are discussed in Appendix B.

If the unit passes its power-up diagnostics and completes the boot procedure, the Local> prompt should be displayed. Proceed to Chapter 4 to conÞgure the unit using the command line interface.
