Chapter 2: Unpacking and Installing the FN100

The Local Console Manager (LCM) is a command-line interface built 
into the FN100 that enables you to monitor, manage, and configure the 
FN100 through the out-of-band RS232C connection on the front panel 
attached to any non-intelligent terminal.

You can also use a Cabletron Systems Network Management System, or a 
standard SNMP-based Network Management System, to manage the 
FN100. For a list of available FN100 network management tools, see 
Chapter 4, Section 4.1, FN100 Management Tools.

The following sections describe LCM command syntax and the basic 
LCM commands for logging in, logging out, and getting help.

•

LCM commands used for configuring the FN100 are described in 
Chapter 3, Configuring the FN100.

•

LCM commands used for monitoring and managing the FN100 are 
described in Chapter 4, Monitoring and Managing the FN100.

The following conventions apply as you use LCM commands: 

•

Press the Enter key to execute a command after you type it in.

•

A port range is either a single port number, or a list of port numbers 
separated by commas or hyphens. For example, 

3

 is port 

3

; 

3,7

 are 

ports 

3

 and 

7

; 

3-5

 are ports 

3,4,

 and 

5

; and 

3-5,7

 are ports 

3,4,5,

 and 

7

.

•

To quit any command, press the Control-C keys (^C or Ctrl-C).

•

You can abbreviate any command where there is no ambiguity; if there 
is ambiguity, LCM responds with an error message.

•

Commands are not case sensitive.

•

Any invalid commands or misspellings will receive an error message.

You can also use the 

Fast Network 100 Local Console 

Manager (LCM) Commands Reference Card as a quick 
reference for all LCM commands, including each command’s 
options.
