ProSafe M4100 and M7100 Managed Switches Note: In the CLI, loopback and tunnel interfaces do not use the slot/port format. To specify a loopback interface, you use the loopback ID. To specify a tunnel interface, you use the tunnel ID. Using a Command's "No" Form The no keyword is a specific form of an existing command and does not represent a new or distinct command. Almost every configuration command has a no form. In general, use the no form to reverse the action of a command or reset a value back to the default. For example, the no shutdown configuration command reverses the shutdown of an interface. Use the command without the keyword no to reenable a disabled feature or to enable a feature that is disabled by default. Only the configuration commands are available in the no form. Managed Switch Modules Managed switch software consists of flexible modules that can be applied in various combinations to develop advanced Layer 2/3/4+ products. The commands and command modes available on your switch depend on the installed modules. Additionally, for some show commands, the output fields might change based on the modules included in the software. The software suite includes the following modules: • Switching (Layer 2) • Routing (Layer 3) • IPv6-IPv6 routing • Multicast • Quality of Service • Management (CLI, web UI, and SNMP) • IPv6 Management-Allows management of the device through an IPv6 through an IPv6 address without requiring the IPv6 Routing package in the system. The management address can be associated with the network port (front-panel switch ports) and a routine interface (port or VLAN). • Stacking Not all modules are available for all platforms or software releases. Command Modes The CLI groups commands into modes according to the command function. Each of the command modes supports specific software commands. The commands in one mode are not available until you switch to that particular mode, except for the User EXEC mode Using the Command-Line Interface 12
