Netgear XCM8810 - 8800 SERIES 10-SLOT CHASSIS SWITCH ユーザーズマニュアル

MSM Prompt

You do not know which MSM you are connected to: 

If you use a console connection to access and configure the switch, you should connect to 
the console port of the primary MSM, not the backup MSM. To determine which console port 
you are connected to use the 

show switch

 command. The output displays both the primary 

and backup MSMs, if installed, and an asterisk (*) appears to the right of the MSM you are 
connected to.

The following truncated sample output indicates that you are connected to MSM-A, the 
primary MSM:

MSM: MSM-A * MSM-B

You have user privileges, not administrator privileges, on the backup MSM: 

If you establish a console connection to access the backup MSM, only user privileges are 
available. This is true regardless of the privileges configured on the primary MSM. If you 
enter an administrator level command on the backup MSM, the switch displays a message 
stating that the command is only supported on the primary MSM. 

Command Prompt

If an asterisk (*) precedes the command prompt, a new change to the switch configuration 
has not been saved. To save the configuration, use the 

save configuration

 command. After 

you save the configuration, the asterisk (*) no longer precedes the command prompt.

Observe the console prompt. If you are logged in as an administrator, the prompt ends with 
the hash symbol(#). If you are logged in as a user, the prompt ends with a greater than sign 
(>).

The following is sample output from an administrator-level account:

BD-10808.1 # 

The following is sample output from a user-level account:

BD-10808.1 > 

Port Configuration

If patching from a switch to another switch, ensure that you are using a category 5 (CAT5) 
crossover cable. This is a CAT5 cable that has pins 1 and 2 on one end connected to pins 3 
and 6 on the other end.
