1.1.2 The Structure of the User Interface
The user interface is organized as a series of menus with an escape to a command line
interface (CLI) shell. Each menu screen presents the switch name (as proved by the System
Identification parameter), Menu Title, Access Level, Alarms indicator, Sub-Menus and
Command Bar.
Sub-menus are entered by selecting the desired menu with the arrow keys and pressing the
enter key. Pressing the escape key ascends to the parent menu.

The command bar offers a list of commands that apply to the currently displayed menu. These
commands include:
• <CTRL> Z to display help on the current command or data item
• <CTRL> S to switch to the CLI shell
• <CTRL> U/D to jump to next/previous page of a status display
The main menu also provides a <CTRL> X command, which will terminate the session. This
type of menu is accessible via serial consol, telnet session and SSH session.
1.1.3 Making Configuration Changes
When changing a data item the user selects the data item by the cursor keys and then pressing
