To use the command line interface:

1.Start a SSH or Telnet session.

2.Enter the IP address or FQDN of the VCS.

3.Login with a username of admin and your system password.

You will see a screen similar to that shown on the right. You are now ready to start using the CLI by typing the appropriate commands.

Types of Commands

Commands are divided into different groups according to their function:

xStatus	These commands return information
	about the current status of the system.
	Information such as current calls and
	registrations is available through this
	command group.
xConfiguration These commands allow you to add and
	edit single items of data such as IP
	address and zones.
xCommand	These commands allow you to add and
	configure items and obtain information.
xHistory	These commands provide historical
	information about calls and registrations.
xFeedback	These commands provide information
	about events as they happen, such as
