Introduction
The modem configuration and status can also be view and modified through the console, which is accessible through the
CLI Terminology
In order to use the CLI commands, you need to understand the following CLI terms:
•Transport: A transport is a layer 2 session and everything below it. You can create a transport and attach it to a bridge or router so that data can be bridged or routed via the attached transport. The CLI supports the following transports:
•PPPoA:
•PPPoE:
•Frame Relay
•RFC1483
•IPoA: IP over ATM
•PPPoH:
•Ethernet
•Interface: bridges and routers both have interfaces. A single transport is attached to a bridge or router via an interface.
•Object: an object is anything that you can create and manipulate as a single entity, for example, interfaces, transports, static routes and NAT rules.
•List: Objects are numbered entries in a list. For example, if you have created more than one ethernet trans- port, the following command:
ethernet list transports
produces a list of numbered transport objects:
ID Name Port
1 eth2 ethernet
2 eth1 ethernet
Local (VT-100 emulation)
A connection is made with the
Remote (Telnet)
Establishing a Telnet session displays the same CLI configuration and status parameters on the display.
