Menu basics Introduction The AOS CLI is used for viewing switch information and statistics. In addition, the administrator can use the CLI for performing all levels of switch configuration. To make the CLI easy to use, the various commands have been logically grouped into a series of menus and submenus. Each menu displays a list of commands and/or submenus that are available, along with a summary of what each command will do. Below each menu is a prompt where you can enter any command appropriate to the current menu. This chapter describes the Main Menu commands, and provides a list of commands and shortcuts that commonly are available from all the menus within the CLI. Main Menu The Main Menu displays after a successful connection and login. The following table shows the Main Menu for the administrator login. Some features are not available under the user login. [Main Menu] info stats cfg oper boot maint diff apply save revert exit - Information Menu - Statistics Menu - Configuration Menu - Operations Command Menu - Boot Options Menu - Maintenance Menu - Show pending config changes [global command] - Apply pending config changes [global command] - Save updated config to FLASH [global command] - Revert pending or applied changes [global command] - Exit [global command, always available] Menu summary The Main Menu displays the following submenus: • Information Menu The Information Menu provides submenus for displaying information about the current status of the switch: from basic system settings to VLANs, and more. • Statistics Menu This menu provides submenus for displaying switch performance statistics. Included are port, IP, ICMP, TCP, UDP, SNMP, routing, ARP, and DNS. • Configuration Menu This menu is available only from an administrator login. It includes submenus for configuring every aspect of the switch. Changes to configuration are not active until explicitly applied. Changes can be saved to non-volatile memory (NVRAM). • Operations Command Menu Operations-level commands are used for making immediate and temporary changes to switch configuration. This menu is used for bringing ports temporarily in and out of service. This menu is available only from an administrator and operator login. • Boot Options Menu The Boot Options Menu is available only from an administrator login. This menu is used for upgrading switch software, selecting configuration blocks, and for resetting the switch when necessary. This menu is also used to set the switch back to factory settings. • Maintenance Menu This menu is used for debugging purposes, enabling you to generate a technical support dump of the critical state information in the switch, and to clear entries in the Forwarding Database and the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) and routing tables. This menu is available only from an administrator and operator login. Menu basics 14
