156 Using the CLI
Since a switch may be powered on in the field without a serial connection, the
switch waits 60 seconds for the user to respond to the setup wizard question
in instances where no configuration files exist. If there is no response, the
switch continues normal operation using the default factory configuration.
While waiting for the response from the user, normal switch operation will
continue, including but not limited to:
• If BOOTP/DHCP is supported and enabled by default, the switch
attempts to get its address.
• The switch continues to switch traffic.
• The switch continues do MAC learning. If spanning-tree is on by default,
the switch participates in the spanning-tree protocol.
