Configuration is available via a menu which contains most commands available through CLI but in a
hierarchical user-friendly format. It follows a standard menu/choice model. This method is not available
for the FibreBridge 2400.
Configuration of the FibreBridge includes
displaying and modifying various attributes of
FibreBridge operation, as well as the update of
firmware. The menu system provides access to
ATTO FibreBridge services in a standard
menu/choice model, and displays options and
current status for all ATTO FibreBridge models
except the FibreBridge 2400.

after the initial display is complete, ending with
the word
