5.2 Command line interface
The Nokia M10 operating software includes a command line interface
(CLI) that lets you monitor and configure your M10 over a telnet or a
local serial console connection. You can use the CLI to enter and
update a Nokia M10’s configuration settings, monitor its performance,
and restart it. Some CLI commands are not available until certain
conditions are met. For example, you must turn a function on before
you can enter settings for that function.
The commands of the CLI are divided into two hierarchies: Root and
Config. The Root command hierarchy lets you monitor the
performance of your M10, display and reset M10 statistics, and issue
administrative commands to restart M10 functions. The Config
command hierarchy lets you configure the settings of your M10.
5.2.1 Starting and ending a CLI session
You can open a command line interface session by opening a telnet
connection from a workstation on your network to an M10 Ethernet or
ADSL port or by connecting a terminal to the console port on the Nokia
M10.
Connecting from telnet
You initiate a telnet connection by issuing the following command
from an IP host that supports telnet (or a personal computer running a
telnet application such as Microsoft or NCSA Telnet).
telnet ADSL_ip_address
You must know the IP address of the Nokia M10 before you can
connect to is via a telnet connection to it. You can use a W eb browser or
the serial console to configure the M10’s IP address.
Connecting from the console port
You can connect a terminal or a terminal emulator to the console port
on the Nokia M10 front panel to configure, administer, and monitor
your Nokia M10. To use the Nokia M10 console, you need a serial
cable and either a terminal or a terminal emulator (such as a personal
computer with a terminal emulation application that supports
9600-baud communication).
To connect your Nokia M10 to a terminal or terminal emulators:
