Commissioning fundamentals

Commissioning follows hardware installation. Commissioning includes the minimal, but essential, configuration steps to provide a default, starting point configuration, set up a management interface, and establish basic security on the node. For more information about configuring security, see Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 Security, NN46205-601.
