Tip
  • The Linux shell prompt looks like username@hostname$, which may also give a hint about which PicOS mode is active. However, the /etc/init.d/picos sudo picos-status command at the Linux shell should be used to establish the current PicOS mode, as detailed in Checking PicOS Mode.
  • On N3048EP-ON and N3132PX switches, run "save_config" command when perform picos_boot. Otherwise, the picos_boot configuration will be lost after PicOS reboot. For detail, please refer to Configuration Saving Guide.
