LCD Panel Modes
The LCD panel operates in four modes: boot, idle, status, and maintenance.
The LCD panel operates in boot mode during switch reboot. The boot mode displays the
key milestones in the switch boot process. The boot mode does not have any menu
options. After the boot process is complete, the LCD panel automatically reverts to the
Idle menu.
When the LCD panel is in idle, status, or maintenance mode, you can perform basic setup
and maintenance and display switch status. (See Table 5 on page 15.)
The first line of the text on the LCD panel displays the slot number, the role of the switch,
and the hostname. For a standalone J-EX4500 switch, the slot number is always
00
and
the role is always
RE
.
In a J-EX4500 switch that is a member of a Virtual Chassis, the first line of the LCD panel
displays the following information:
•
Slot number—the member ID for the Virtual Chassis member
•
Role of the switch in a Virtual Chassis—
RE
for the master switch,
BK
for a backup switch,
and
LC
for a linecard member switch
•
Hostname
LCD Panel Menus
The LCD panel has three menus: Idle, Status, and Maintenance. You can toggle between
the LCD panel menus by pressing the
Menu
button and navigate through the menu options
by pressing the
Enter
button.
Table 5 on page 15 describes the LCD panel menu options.
