Admin Command
Opens and closes an Admin session. The Admin session provides commands that change the fabric and switch configurations. Only one Admin session can be open on the switch at any time. An inactive Admin session will time out after a period of time which can be changed using the Set Setup System command. Refer to the ”Set Setup Command” on page

Keywords | start (or begin) |

| Closes the admin session. The Hardreset, Hotreset, Logout, Shutdown, and |
| Reset Switch commands will also end an admin session. |

| Terminates an Admin session opened by another user. Use this keyword with care |
| because it terminates the Admin session without warning the other user and |
| without saving pending changes. |

| this case, you must either wait for the admin session to time out, or use the Admin |
| Cancel command. |
