Access Server Commands

User Groups

For practical purposes, the access server command set syntax is divided into command groups. These groups are:

Command descriptions

CLEAR/PURGE commands

SET/DEFINE/CHANGE commands

SHOW/LIST/MONITOR commands

In the above list, the command descriptions group includes any command that does not functionally fit into the CLEAR/PURGE, SET/DEFINE/CHANGE or SHOW/LIST MONITOR groups (for example, DIAL, CONNECT, SEND, and LOOP).

Command Definitions

The following table describes the commands for the CLEAR/PURGE, SET/DEFINE/ CHANGE and SHOW/LIST/MONITOR groups:

Command

Result

 

 

DEFINE

Changes NVRAM (nonvolatile random access memory). The

 

system must be reinitialized for the changes to take effect.

SET

Changes VRAM.1

CHANGE

Changes both NVRAM and VRAM.

SHOW

Displays current status or information about various options

 

from the access server operational database.

MONITOR

various options. Type any character to stop a monitor display.

 

The MONITOR command displays have the same format as the

 

corresponding SHOW command displays, but requires the user

 

to be privileged.

permanent database.

CLEAR

Changes VRAM.

PURGE
