    4. If using the tip command on a UNIX workstation, do the following: a. View the /etc/remote file and create an alias similar to Hardware but with the serial port parameters above. (Suggested name: Switch) b. Use the tip command to establish a connection through the created alias, for example tip switch.

  • Page 15: Saving Configuration Changes

    Note: Up to 10 concurrent telnet sessions may access the switch. Once logged in to the CLI, the Root menu (main menu) is displayed.
