commands clock datetime, clock timezone and clock summer-time. If these three
commands are not configured, the display clock command displays the original
system clock. If you combine these three commands in different ways, the system clock
is displayed in the ways shown in
Table 1-1. The meanings of the parameters in the
configuration column are as follows:
z 1 indicates date-time has been configured with the clock datetime.
z 2 indicates time-zone has been configured with the clock timezone command
and the offset time is zone-offset.
z 3 indicates summer time has been configured with the clock summer-time
command and the offset time is summer-offset.

1.1.4 Configuring a Banner
I. Introduction to banners
Banners are prompt information displayed by the system when users are connected to
the device, perform login authentication, and start interactive configuration. The
administrator can set corresponding banners as needed.
At present, the system supports the following five kinds of welcome information.
Operation Manual – System Maintaining and Debugging
H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 Basic Configurations
1-6
z shell banner, also called session banner, displayed when a non Modem user
enters user view.
z incoming banner, also called user interface banner, displayed when a user
interface is activated by a Modem user.
z login banner, welcome information at login authentications, displayed when
password and scheme authentications are configured.
z motd banner, welcome information displayed before authentication.
z legal banner, also called authorization information. The system displays some
copyright or authorization information, and then displays the legal banner before a
user logs in, waiting for the user to confirm whether to continue the authentication
or login. If entering Y or pressing the Enter key, the user enters the authentication
or login process; if entering N, the user quits the authentication or login process. Y
and N are case insensitive.
II. Configuring a banner
When you configure a banner, the system supports two input modes. One is to input all
the banner information right after the command keywords. The start and end characters
of the input text must be the same but are not part of the banner information. In this
case, the input text, together with the command keywords, cannot exceed 510
characters. The other is to input all the banner information in multiple lines by pressing
the Enter key. In this case, up to 2000 characters can be input.
The latter input mode can be achieved in the following three ways:
z Press the Enter key directly after the command keywords, and end the setting with
the % character. The Enter and % characters are not part of the banner
information.
z Input a character after the command keywords at the first line, and then press the
Enter key. End the setting with the character input at the first line. The character at
the first line and the end character are not part of the banner information.
z Input multiple characters after the command keywords at the first line (with the first
and last characters being different), then press the Enter key. End the setting with
the first character at the first line. The first character at the first line and the end
character are not part of the banner information.
Follow these steps to configure a banner:

definition of the terminal software will dominate.
1.1.6 Configuring User Levels and Command Levels
All the commands are defaulted to different views and categorized into four levels: visit,
monitor, system, and manage, identified respectively by 0 through 3. If you want to
Operation Manual – System Maintaining and Debugging

acquire a higher privilege, you must switch to a higher user level, and it requires
password to do so for AUX and VTY user interfaces for the security’s sake.
The following table describes the default level of the commands.

Note:
The commands available depend on your user level when you log onto a device. For
example, if your user level is 3 and the command level of VTY 0 interface is 1, you can
use commands below level 3 (inclusive).

Caution:
z When you configure the password for switching user level with the super password
command, the user level is defaulted to 3 if no user level is specified.
z You can switch to a lower user level unconditionally. To switch to a higher user level,
however, you need to enter the password needed (The password can be set with
the super password command.). If the entered password is incorrect or no
password is configured, the switch fails. Therefore, before switching to a higher user
level, you should configure the password needed.
z You are recommended to use the default user level; otherwise the change of user
level may bring inconvenience to your maintenance and operation.

2.1.1 Introduction to System Maintaining and Debugging
You can use the ping command and the tracert command to verify the current network
connectivity.
I. The ping command
You can use the ping command to verify whether a device with a specified address is
reachable, and to examine network connectivity.
The ping command involves the following steps in its execution:
1) The source device sends an ICMP echo request to the destination device.
2) If the network is functioning properly, the destination device responds by sending
an ICMP echo reply to the source device after receiving the ICMP echo request.
3) If there is network failure, the source device displays timeout or destination
unreachable.
4) Display related statistics.
Output of the ping command includes:
z Information on the destination’s responses towards each ICMP echo request, if
the source device has received the ICMP echo reply within the timeout time, it
displays the number of bytes of the echo reply, the message sequence number,
Time to Live (TTL), and the response time.
z If within the period set by the timeout timer, the destination device has not received
the ICMP response, it displays the prompt information.
z The ping command can apply to the destination’s name or IP address. If the
destination’s name is unknown, the prompt information is displayed.
z The statistics during the ping operation, which include number of packets sent,
number of echo reply messages received, percentage of messages not received,
the minimum, average, and maximum response time.

II. The tracert command
By using the tracert command, you can trace the routers involved in delivering a packet
from source to destination. This is useful for identification of failed node(s) in the event
of network failure.
The tracert command involves the following steps in its execution:
1) The source device sends a packet with a TTL value of 1 to the destination device.
2) The first hop (the router that first receives the packet) responds by sending a
TTL-expired ICMP message to the source, with its IP address encapsulated. In
this way, the source device can get the address of the first router.
3) The source device sends a packet with a TTL value of 2 to the destination device.
4) The second hop responds with a TTL-expired ICMP message, which gives the
source device the address of the second router.
5) The above process continues until the ultimate destination device is reached. In
this way, the source device can trace the addresses of all the routers that have
been used to get to the destination device.
2.1.2 Introduction to System Debugging
The device provides various debugging functions. For the majority of protocols and
features supported, the system provides corresponding debugging information to help
users diagnose errors.
The following two switches control the display of debugging information:
z Protocol debugging switch, which controls protocol-specific debugging information
z Screen output switch, which controls whether to display the debugging information
on a certain screen.
Figure 2-1 illustrates the relationship between the protocol debugging switch and the
screen output switch. Assume that the device can output debugging information to
module 1, 2 and 3. Only when both are turned on can debugging information be output
on a terminal.

Note:
Displaying debugging information on the terminal is the most commonly used way to
output debugging information. You can also output debugging information to other
directions. For details, refer to Information Center Configuration.
