This section discusses the objectives, audience, organization, and conventions of the LightStream 1010 ATM Switch and Catalyst 8510 MSR Command Reference publication.
Cisco documentation and additional literature are available in a CD-ROM package, which ships with your product. The Documentation CD-ROM, a member of the Cisco Connection Family, is updated monthly. Therefore, it might be more up to date than printed documentation. To order additional copies of the Documentation CD-ROM, contact your local sales representative or call customer service. The CD-ROM package is available as a single package or as an annual subscription. You can also access Cisco documentation on the World Wide Web at http://www.cisco.com, http://www-china.cisco.com, or http://www-europe.cisco.com.
If you are reading Cisco product documentation on the World Wide Web, you can submit comments electronically. Click Feedback in the toolbar, select Documentation, and click Enter the feedback form. After you complete the form, click Submit to send it to Cisco. We appreciate your comments.
This publication is intended as a standalone document for experienced network administrators who will be configuring and maintaining switches and would like to reference commands. For less-experienced users who need to understand the tasks as well as the commands, it is intended as a companion guide to the LightStream 1010 ATM Switch and Catalyst 8510 MSR Software Configuration Guide.
This publication provides an in-depth description of the commands necessary for configuring and maintaining your ATM switch. It describes tasks only in the context of using a particular command; it does not describe how the tasks interrelate nor does it provide comprehensive configuration examples.You can use this publication as a standalone reference manual or in conjunction with the LightStream 1010 ATM Switch and Catalyst 8510 MSR Software Configuration Guide.
Not all of the debug commands are included in this publication. For a complete guide to the debug commands, refer to the Router Products Debug Command Reference publication.
Several Cisco IOS commands are not currently supported in the ATM switch environment. In this document these commands are identified with a note indicating that the command or some of its parameters might not function as expected.
Table 1 shows the command names that have changed from Cisco IOS Release 11.2 to 11.3.
