SYSTEM CONFIGURATION AND MONITORING COMMANDS
FINDME
findme
Overview Use this command to physically locate a specific device from a group of similar
devices. Activating the command causes a selected number of port LEDs to
alternately flash green then amber (if that device has amber LEDs) at a rate of 1 Hz.
Use the no variant of this command to deactivate the Find Me feature prior to the
timeout expiring.
Syntax
findme [interface <port-list>] [timeout <duration>]
no findme
Default By default all port LEDs flash for 60 seconds.
Mode Privileged Exec
Usage notes Running the findme command causes the device’s port LEDs to flash. An optional
timeout parameter specifies the flash behavior duration. Normal LED behavior is
restored automatically after either the default time, or a specified time has elapsed,
or a no findme command is used. You can specify which interface or interfaces are
flashed with the optional interface parameter.
Example To activate the Find Me feature for the default duration (60 seconds) on all ports,
use the following command:
awplus# findme
To activate the Find Me feature for 120 seconds on all ports, use the following
command:
awplus# findme timeout 120
To activate the Find Me feature for the default duration (60 seconds) on switch port
interfaces port1.0.2 through port1.0.4, use the following command:
awplus# findme interface port1.0.2-1.0.4
In the example above, ports 2 to 4 will flash 4 times and then all ports will flash
twice. Each alternate flash will be amber (if that device has amber LEDs). This
pattern will repeat until timeout (default or set) or no findme commands are used.
Parameter Description
interface <port-list> The ports to flash. The port list can be:
• a switch port, e.g. port1.0.4
• a continuous range of ports separated by a hyphen,
e.g. port1.0.1-1.0.4
• a comma-separated list of ports and port ranges,
e.g. port1.0.1,port1.0.5-1.0.6.
timeout <duration> How long the LEDs flash, in seconds, in the range 5 to
3600 seconds.
