Appendix B U sin g th e C LI The Command Line Interface (CLI) software is a terminal-based command line interface that allows you to monitor and manage the iSCSI Storage Appliance. You can use the CLI to create and manage iSCSI targets that will appear as local disk storage on your server. You can use the CLI's event logging features to monitor the entire system. This appendix introduces the CLI and provides instructions for using the CLI to configure the settings on your iSCSI Storage Appliance. Accessing the CLI You can access the CLI two ways. Each method presents the CLI automatically: • Attach a VT100 terminal emulation utility (for example, hyperterminal) to the serial port of the iSCSI Storage Appliance. Use these terminal emulation program settings to access the CLI: • Null Modem Cable • Baud Rate: 115,200 • Data Bits: 8 • Parity: None • Stop Bits: 1 • Flow Control: Off Note Flow control must be set to Off. Otherwise, the system will appear to hang. • Connect to the iSCSI Storage Appliance through a Telnet session (once the initial network values have been set.) Telnet to the IP address that is assigned to the management port on the iSCSI Storage Appliance. Note The default administrator password is admin. Snap Server 700i Series User's Guide 177
