Command Line Interface

Command Line Interface

Overview

The Command Line Interface (CLI) is a command line option for IOLAN configuration/management. See the Command Line Interface Reference Guide for a full breakdown of all the CLI commands and their functionality.

Access Platforms

The CLI is accessed by any application that supports a Telnet session to the IOLAN’s IP address, such as Putty, SecureCRT, or from a command prompt. You can also access the CLI from a dumb terminal or PC connected to a serial port.

Features

The CLI supports the following features:

zYou can access the IOLAN from any application that supports Telnet.

zThe ability to clear the ARP table (cache).

zThe ability to save a configuration file locally in text format, in addition to the binary format.

Connecting to the IOLAN Using the CLI

There are two ways you can access the IOLAN, through the network (Ethernet connection) or through the serial connection. If you are accessing the IOLAN through the network, the IOLAN must already have a known IP address configured; see Using a Direct Serial Connection to Specify an IP Address getting started for information on configuring an IP address.

Through the Network

To connect to the IOLAN through the network to configure/manage it using the CLI, do the following:

1.Start a Telnet session to the IOLAN’s IP address; for example: telnet 10.10.201.100

2.You will get a Login: prompt. You can login as the admin user or as a user with Admin Level rights. If the login is successful, you will get a prompt that displays the IOLAN model and number of ports:

Login: admin Password:

DS1#

You will see a prompt that displays the model and number of the IOLAN. You are now ready to start configuring/managing your IOLAN using the CLI.
