Virtual Front Panel

VFP: Display Virtual Front Panel
When invoked, this command displays a current summary of system status, including the state of front panel
LEDs.
There are two ways that the live display of events can be started:
1. Live Mode: Invoked from the VFP command at the MP prompt. To exit, type Q to quit the console.
2. Early Boot Mode: When the boot sequence for the system begins, the live VFP is invoked automatically.
When boot finishes, you are automatically switched to console mode.
The LWED state reflects the state of the front panel LEDs. When system power is off, the remote LED shows
"off " even thought remote access may be enabled with the EL or ER commands.
