Using CLI

Nomenclature

When referring to an Ethernet port in a CLI command, the following format is used:

For an Ethernet port on a standalone device: Ethernet_type port_number

For an Ethernet port on a stacked device: unit_number/Ethernet_type port number

The Ethernet type may be Gigabit Ethernet (indicated by “g”).

For example, g3 stands for Gigabit Ethernet port 3 on a stand-alone device, whereas 1/3 stands for Gigabit Ethernet port 3 on stacking unit.

The ports may be described on an individual basis or within a range. Use format port number-port number to specify a set of consecutive ports and port number, port number to indicates a set of non-consecutive ports. For example, g1-3 stands for Gigabit Ethernet ports 1, 2 and 3, and g1,5 stands for Gigabit Ethernet ports 1 and 5.

Keyboard Shortcuts

The CLI has a range of keyboard shortcuts to assist in editing the CLI commands. The following table describes the CLI shortcuts.
