SM CLP Syntax

The following sections provide terms, descriptions, and examples of the SM CLP syntax.

Command Line Terms

The command syntax consists of a command verb, options, target address, and properties. The general syntax of the SM CLP command is as follows:

<verb> <options> <target> <properties> Where:

<verb>

<options>

<target>

<properties>

Command Verbs

Command verbs select a management action for target.

The command verbs listed in Table 6-29consist of several reserved words in the following categories:

Retrieve Information	cd, help, show, version
Configure a target	create, delete, load, set
Change target state	exit, reset, start, stop

Table 6-29lists the supported command verbs.

Table 6-29	Supported Command Verbs
Command	Action
cd	Changes the current default target.

	The root of the CLP target namespace is /, and this is the starting point for a CLP system. By changing
	the current default target by running cd <some target>, you can shorten commands.
	For example, to find the current MP firmware version, run the command show
	/map1/swinventory1/swid1. However, if you run the cd /map1/swinventory1/swid1
	command, the show command displays the information.
create	Creates a new instance of an object.
delete	Deletes an instance of a target object.
exit	Terminates the SM CLP session.
