CHAPTER 8 CLI Operations
8.1Basic CLI Operations
This section describes the command line interface (CLI) provided by the GSWB.
8.1.1Operating environment
The operating environment needs to include a terminal that can be connected to the GSWB as a remote console. For details, see the PRIMEQUEST 480/440 Installation Manual.
8.1.2CLI access procedure
After the device is started, connect to the remote console (execute the [telnet] or [ssh] command). A [login] prompt appears. Enter the correct account name and password to log in.
8.1.3CLI command modes
The commands are divided into operation commands, configuration definition commands, and editing commands. Operation commands display system status information and statistical information and clear statistical counters. The configuration definition and editing commands modify interface parameters and enable switching functions. In addition, the commands run in different modes. The available commands depend on the command mode selected.
