Figure 3: Bootstrap Load Process - System Initialisation - Part I - Alcatel-Lucent 7210 SAS M Configuration Manual

Note: When the operator executes the reset command in the boot loader prompt or admin reboot
auto-init in the TiMos CLI, 7210 SAS resets the current BOF and reboots.
Note: The operator can manage a 7210 SAS node through an external physical network.
Managing a node through an external physical network secures the management network by
restricting access to service customers and service data. The 7210 SAS node can be managed
through the Out-of-band (OOB) Ethernet management port.
