The [boot] Prompt
The [boot] prompt has its own set of commands that are built into the switch. You do not
need to have files or software loaded to use this set of commands. You can perform many of
the functions that the
MPX
software does; however, the purpose of these commands are to
reload software in order to get the switch up and running.
To see a list of the boot commands, type
?
