SM-CLP Features

The SM-CLP promotes the concept of verbs and targets to provide system management capabilities through the CLI. The verb indicates the operation to perform, and the target determines the entity (or object) that runs the operation.

Below is an example of the SM-CLP command line syntax.

<verb> [<options>] [<target>] [<properties>]

During a typical SM-CLP session, you can perform operations using the verbs listed in Table 11-1.

Table 11-1. Supported CLI Verbs for System

Verb	Definition
cd	Navigates through the MAP using the shell
set	Sets a property to a specific value
help	Displays help for a specific target
reset	Resets the target
show	Displays the target properties, verbs, and subtargets
start	Turns on a target
stop	Shuts down a target
