Monitoring the Initialization Processes
It takes about two minutes for the switch to initialize its management
software programs and features, and load the default configuration. You
can monitor the bootup sequence by connecting a terminal or computer
with a terminal emulator program to the Console port. (The Console port
settings are provided in “Starting a Local Management Session” on
page 150.) The switch displays the messages in Figure 86 through
Figure 88 on the Console port as it initializes the management software.
