Console prompt

I was consoled into an ICX 7150 and everything was going fine. Somehow, I did something and now my prompt is ~$. How do I get back to the normal hostname prompt?

Thanks,

Here's what it looks like.

If 'exit' does not work, you may need to restart the switch.

I figured as much. It's just that I had done some configuring and hadn't saved it yet.

Does anyone know what mode that is and what it's used for? I've never seen that before.

I ended up rebooting it. Back to normal.

I'm not a 100% sure what happened there, but based on the screenshot it looks like the CLI task itself may have crashed. If you continue to have issues, please open a case (see my sig).
