This section explains how to set and modify module values for applicable
parameters and defines terms that are used during each process.
How to Set and
Modify Module
Parameters
The module parameter values are set at the factory or during power-on.
The basic steps for setting or modifying module parameter values are:
1 Connect to a module. The
menu options
screen appears.
2 Select
module
from the
menu options
screen. The module
menu options
screen appears.
3 Select an option from the module
menu options
screen. The screen for
that option appears with information and other options, if applicable.
4 Read the screen for details explaining how to modify or quit the module
menu options
screen.
Terminology Before you use the module parameters to set or modify function values,
review the following terms:
■
Reset — Option in the
nvData
menu. Use this option to reset module
values to their factory defaults.
■
Staging
— Option in the
nvData
menu. If disabled, the module resets
to its default factory settings after you hot-swap it into another
Switch 4007 chassis. If enabled, the module retains its nvData settings
after you hot-swap it into another Switch 4007 chassis.
If the module being hot-swapped is the same type as the module that
was removed from a chassis, the hot-swapped module learns the
previous module’s settings from the EME module that is installed in the
chassis.
