I bought a Catalyst 3000 to study for the CCNA. This switch keeps booting to "Cisco Catalyst Manager" menu instead of a CLI. No option K in sight. Suggestions on how I can get to a CLI?
TIA. (no DOC-CAT3000ICG available)

I needed to power up the 3016a I have on my desk to see what the interface was - it has been a long time. I was surprised to see the menu, I thought it was more like the Cat 5000's.

I dont think this has been on more that a few hours in the last 4 years, and the clock is with in 2 hours.

I do not remember a CLI interface with this switch, but then I did not have responsibility for its network way back when it was in service.
I still have some old UniverCD's that might have this info, but not sure if I have a PC it will run on.

Sorry I cannot answer your question definitivly
