Enter Ctrl-B from the system console (serial or LAN) to activate the main
MP menu.
Enter the 'cm' command to access the command menu.

Overview
Enter the 'pc' command (power control) to toggle
system power state. Note that no signal is sent to the
OS to allow for a graceful shutdown, so the system
should be halted prior to using this command to turn off
the system.
Enter the 'lc' command (LAN configuration) to set IP
address, subnet mask, gateway address, and web
console port number for the cluster LAN port.
Enter the 'xd -r' command (reset and diagnostics)
command to reset the MP card.
Enter Ctrl-B from the system console (serial or LAN)
to return to the main MP menu.
