Note: Prompts are expressed in this table using the format Passport-8300:5; however,
prompts returned from your switch typically reflect the specific chassis you use. For
example, if you use the 8310 chassis, the prompts use the format Passport-8310:5.
Prompts can be customized, also, using the NNCLI command
<prompt>

Accessing the NNCLI

When you first power up the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300, the default interface
is the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 CLI. To switch from the CLI to the NNCLI,
you must change the NNCLI boot flag to
file using the following commands:
Passport-8310:5# config boot flags nncli true
Passport-8310:5# save boot
