About CONFIG Commands

You reach the configuration mode of the command line interface by typing configure (or any truncation of configure, such as con or config) at the CLI SHELL prompt.

CONFIG Mode Prompt

When you are in CONFIG mode, the CLI prompt consists of the name of the Netopia Gate- way followed by your current node in the hierarchy and two right angle brackets (>>). For example, when you enter CONFIG mode (by typing config at the SHELL prompt), the Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>> prompt reminds you that you are at the top of the CONFIG hierarchy. If you move to the ip node in the CONFIG hierarchy (by typing ip at the CONFIG prompt), the prompt changes to Netopia-3000/9437188 (ip)>> to identify your current location.

Some CLI commands are not available until certain conditions are met. For example, you must enable IP for an interface before you can enter IP settings for that interface.

Navigating the CONFIG Hierarchy

Moving from CONFIG to SHELL — You can navigate from anywhere in the CONFIG hierarchy back to the SHELL level by entering quit at the CONFIG prompt and pressing

RETURN.
