7.1 CLI provides ASCII-based interface

The command line interface (CLI) provides access to the ATTO iPBridge Services through a set of ASCII commands. CLI commands may be entered while in CLI mode.

iPBridge Services provide configuration and monitoring for the iPBridge. CLI commands may be entered while in CLI mode or on the ExpressNAV interface Advanced CLI page.

Note

The recommended management tool for the iPBridge is ATTO ExpressNAV.

CLI commands are context sensitive and generally follow a standard format

[Get Set] Command [Parameter 1 Parameter 2]

followed by the return or enter key

CLI commands are case insensitive: you may type all upper or all lower case or a mixture. Upper and lower case in this manual and the help screen are for clarification only.

Commands generally have three types of operation: get, set and immediate.

The get form returns the value of a parameter or setting and is an informational command.

Responses to get commands are specified in the Results field for each command, followed by

Ready.

The set form is an action that changes the value of a parameter or configuration setting. It may require a SaveConfiguration command and a restart of the system before it is implemented. The restart can be accomplished as part of the SaveConfiguration command or by using a separate FirmwareRestart command. A number of set commands may be issued before the SaveConfiguration command.

Responses to set commands are either an error message or Ready. *. The asterisk indicates you must use a SaveConfiguration command to finalize the set command. SaveConfiguration asks if you want to restart the system or not.

Set commands which do not require a SaveConfiguration command, defined as immediate commands, are immediately executed.

Responses to Immediate commands are either an error message or data results followed by Ready.

For an example of a typical CLI command and response, see Exhibit 7.1-3 on page 38.
