Command line interface

Using the command line interface (CLI), you can perform most module management tasks. For detailed information on all aspects of the CLI, refer to:

•Getting Started with the Passport 8000 Series Management Software

•Reference for Passport 8000 Series Command Line Interface Switching Operations, and

•Reference for the Passport 8000 Series Command Line Interface Routing Operations.

The CLI identifies an interface by its slot number in the Passport 8600 chassis and its port number, using the syntax slot number/port number (s/p). Refer to “Port numbering” on page 45 for information on the slot and port numbering for the Passport 8683POS Module.
