4.1 Using the command line interface

The CLI commands use the following format:

SET group:parameter:index:value to change the value of a read/write parameters.

GET group:parameter:index:value for read-only parameters or to view the current configuration of a parameter without making any changes.

group identifies the configuration grouping of the parameter. For example, T1CFG.

parameter identifies the actual configuration element. For example, FRAME.

index identifies the physical index of the element you want to configure. Most elements have an index of 1. T1 lines have 2 indexes, which correspond to the 2 WAN interfaces.

For example, to activate the first T1 line, enter the following command:
