A prompt like the following appears at each level: --:- appliance_settings cli->

NOTE: CLI commands are case sensitive.

At any level, you can press Tab Tab at the prompt to see the commands that can be entered at the current level.

---:- appliance_settings cli-><Tab><Tab>

 

?

del

ls

quit

set

exit

opiepasswd

refresh

shell

cd

ftp

passwd

revert

show

commit

help

pwd

scp

 

If you know the path, you can enter multiple path elements in a single command separated with forward slashes (/).

--:- units cli->cd appliance_settings/ports/physical_ports/serial_ports/

--:- serial ports cli->

Enter cd .. to move up one level of the navigation tree. Enter cd ../..[/..] to move up multiple levels.

--:- serial ports cli-> cd ../..

--:- ports cli->

Autocompletion

Autocompletion allows you to type the first few letters of a command or navigation option and then press Tab. The rest of the name is filled in automatically if the letters typed are unique to one command or to a navigation option at that level. If the letters match more than one of the commands or navigation options for that level, the matching options are listed.

For example, if you type cd ov and press Tab at the CLI prompt from the /units level, the overview option will be completed.

--:- units cli-> cd ov<Tab>

--:- units cli-> cd overview

If you then press Enter, you are changed to the overview level, and the overview level prompt appears.

--:- overview cli->

The following example illustrates a case when more than one command matches the letters typed.

--:- units cli-> sh<Tab>

shell show
