save <vadc> | Writes configuration changes to non-volatile flash memory. The Global Administrator can optionally save pending configuraton changes to a specific vADC. |
ping | Verifies station-to-station connectivity across the network. Syntax: ping <hostname> | <IP address> [tries <(1-32)> [msec delay]] [-m|-mgmt|-d|-data] where ![]() ![]() ![]() By default, the -d or -data option for network ports is in effect.
