UNDERSTANDING COMMAND-LINE INTERFACE STRUCTURE
The command-line interface has four main s ys tem prompts, from which most other prompts
stem:
•Configuration—for configuring system information, xDSL service, Permanent
Virtual Paths (PVPs), Permanent Virtual Channels (PVCs), and bridging/routing sessions.
•Display—for displaying system information and perfo rmance data.
•Administration—for administrative tasks such as uploading, downloading and
copying files.
•Diagnostics—for configuring and initiating OAM loopbacks.
Throughout the command-line interface, you can control the scrolling of data on the screen as
follows:
•Type more then press before typing a command to view the data that results from
that command one screen at a time. The system displays the first screen of data then
prompts you to display the next screen.
•Type all then press before typing a command to view the data that results from
that command all at once.
The command-line interface Inactivity Timer automatically logs the current
user off if the keyboard remains inactive for five minutes. When this happens,
follow the previous instructions to log on to the command-line interface again.
To change the length of the Inactivity Timer, see “Setting the Command-Line
Interface TimeoutOption” on page 367.
