Starting the CLI

To start the CLI:

1.Establish a connection with the Services Router:

■To access the router remotely from the network, enter the command you typically use to establish a remote connection (such as Telnet or ssh) using the router hostname.

■To access the router through a management device attached to the console port, start the terminal application.

■To access the router through the J-Web interface, select Diagnose>CLI Terminal in the J-Web interface. For more information, see the J-Web Interface User Guide.

2.Log in using your username and password. After you log in, you enter a UNIX shell.

3.Start the CLI.

%cli user@host>

The presence of the angle bracket (>) prompt indicates the CLI has started. By default, the prompt is preceded by a string that contains your username and the hostname of the router.

To exit the CLI and return to the UNIX shell, enter the quit command.

CLI Operational Mode

The CLI has two modes: operational and configuration. When you log in to the Services Router and the CLI starts, you are at the top level of operational mode.
