This section contains the procedure for viewing the version number of the
management software on the switch. Allied Telesis recommends
performing this procedure if you installed the optional AT-x9EM/XT4
Module. The module requires version 5.4.5-2 or later of the management
software.
To view the version number of the management software, perform the
following procedure. If the switch is powered off, start with step 1. If the
switch is already powered on, start with step 3:
1. Power on one of the switches by doing one of the following:
 If the switch has an AC power supply, connect the AC power cord
to the power supply on the back panel and to an AC power source.
if the switch has two power supplies, you need to power on only
one of them for this procedure.

If the switch has the DC AT-PWR250-80 Power Supply, power on
the DC circuit and the On/Off switch on the power supply. (If you
have not yet wired the DC connector on the power supply, refer to
Chapter 8, "Wiring the DC Connector on the AT-PWR250-80
Power Supply" on page 111.)
2. Wait one minute for the switch to initialize the management software.
3. Start a local management session on the switch. For instructions, refer
to "Starting a Local Management Session" on page 127.
4. In the User Exec mode, enter either the SHOW SYSTEM or SHOW
VERSION command.
5. Examine the Software Version field in the information the command
displays on your screen and do one of the following:

If the field says "545-2" or later, the management software on the
switch supports the AT-x9EM/XT4 Module. Go to Chapter 11,
"Cabling the Networking Ports" on page 133.

If the field says "545" or "545-1", the management software does
not support the optional module. You must update the operating
software on the switch to the latest release before you can use the
module. For upgrade instructions, refer to the Software Reference
for x930 Series Switches, AlliedWare Operating System from
