set chassis display message

Display or stop a text message on the craft interface display, which is on the front of the router. The craft interface alternates the display of text messages with standard craft interface messages, switching between messages every 2 seconds. By default, the text message is displayed for 5 minutes. The craft interface display has four 20-character lines.

Options

"message" — Message to display on the craft interface display. If the message is longer than 20 characters, it wraps onto the next line. If a word does not fit on one line, the entire word moves down to the next line. Any portion of the message that does not fit on the display is truncated. An empty pair of quotation marks (“ ”) deletes the text message from the craft interface display.

lcc number — (Routing matrix only) Display the text message on the craft interface display of a specified T640 routing node (or line-card chassis) that is connected to a TX Matrix platform. Replace number with a value from 0 through 3.

scc — (Routing matrix only) Display the text message on the craft interface display of the TX Matrix platform (or switch-card chassis).

permanent — (Optional) Display a text message on the craft interface display permanently.
