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
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.
