Switches are asw-oe16-esams and asw-oe10-esams both are Brocade FastIron LS 624 - 24-Port Gbit-Switches. You can log in via Console Server Scs-oe10. After that you can use all the commands available by becoming privileged user via enable. Password is the root password.

Ports are labled with the name of the machine attached. Several commands for troubleshooting are available:

show log - system log - you can see which ports went up and down when
show version - informations about software, hardware and uptime
show interfaces brief - short status info about the ports
show interfaces ethernet <port number eg 0/1/23> - full status of the port including description and error counters
show config - display the configuration
show chassis - display temperatures and fan operation

Change port names:

1. enable - become root

2. configure terminal - go into configuration mode

3. interface ethernet 0/1/<number>

4. port-name <name des Ports>

5. end

6. show running-config - see the changes
