Using the CLI
At the command-line interface (CLI), you can enter text commands to configure, manage, and monitor
your device.
Figure 1
CLI example
You can use a variety of methods to log in to the CLI. For example, you can log in through the console
port, or by using Telnet or SSH. For more information about login methods, see "
Login overview
."
CLI views
Commands are grouped in different views by function. To use a command, you must enter its view.
CLI views are hierarchically organized, as shown in
Figure 2
. Each view has a unique prompt, from which
you can identify where you are and what you can do. For example, the prompt
[Sysname-vlan100]
shows that you are in VLAN 100 view and can configure attributes for that VLAN.
