Hi Victor,

About these gui's..

I remember something horrid called.. was it VSM? Visual Switch Manager?
years back when I had to first work on 2900XLs. Is it like that? I soon used
command line on those. There's also PDM last time I worked with PIX. Again
much preferred command line so used that.

Thanks
Gary
