Setup Versus CLI

Once the administrator password is verified, you are given complete access to the switch. If the switch is still set to its factory default configuration, the system will ask whether you wish to run Setup (see Chapter 2, “First-Time Configuration”), a utility designed to help you through the first-time configuration process. If the switch has already been configured, the Main Menu of the CLI is displayed instead.

The following table shows the Main Menu with administrator privileges.

[Main Menu]	- Information Menu
info
stats	- Statistics Menu
cfg	- Configuration Menu
oper	- Operations Command Menu
boot	- Boot Options Menu
maint	- Maintenance Menu
diff	- Show pending config changes [global command]
apply	- Apply pending config changes [global command]
save	- Save updated config to FLASH [global command]
revert	- Revert pending or applied changes [global command]
exit	- Exit [global command, always available]

NOTE – If you are accessing a user account, some menu options will not be available.
