Capturing System Information for Technical Support
For problems you cannot solve yourself, use the
show tech-support
command to generate
a report of your switch’s configuration and status, which you can show to the D-link Technical
Support.
Displaying Technical Support Information
The
show tech-support
command combines a group of show commands to provide an
in-depth snapshot of the status of the switch. The output displays details about the system
image and configuration used after the last reboot, the version, ports, AAA settings, and other
configuration values, and the last 100 log messages.
Run this command before calling the D-Link Technical Support.
