Boot
In addition to POST, boot includes the following tasks after POST is complete:
• Performs universal port configuration.
• Initializes links.
• Analyzes fabric. If any ports are connected to other switches, the switch participates in a fabric
configuration.
• Obtains a domain ID and assigns port addresses.
• Constructs unicast routing tables.
• Enables normal port operation.
