This process authenticates a user once and then allows secure authentication (without encrypting another password) wherever that user credential is accepted.

These parameters are significant only within an MST region, as opposed to external parameters that are relevant to the whole network. Because the CIST is the only spanning-tree instance that spans the whole network, only the CIST parameters require the external rather than the internal or regional qualifiers.

    Appendix B Working with the Cisco IOS File System, Configuration Files, and Software Images Working with Software Images The download algorithm verifies that the image is appropriate for the switch model and that enough DRAM is present, or it aborts the process and reports an error. If you specify the /overwrite option, the download algorithm removes the existing image on the flash device whether or not it is the same as the new one, downloads the new image, and then reloads the software.
  • Page 906 The archive upload-sw privileged EXEC command builds an image file on the server by uploading these files in order: info, the Cisco IOS image, and the web management files. After these files are uploaded, the upload algorithm creates the tar file format.

    This appendix lists some of the command-line interface (CLI) commands that appear when you enter the question mark (?) at the Cisco Metro Ethernet (ME) 3800X and ME 3600X switch prompt but are not supported in this release, either because they are not tested or because of switch hardware limitations.
