1 Command Line Interface
Command Line Interface (CLI) is used for configuring, monitoring, and maintaining PD-IES00x switch over CLI, Telnet, and SSH.
Note:
- It is strongly recommended to use the Web interface whenever possible to simplify user configuration and reduce configuration mismatch.
- The CLI interface may contain more configuration commands than those affected as a result of user configuration changes over the web. This manual covers only the commands affected whenever user changes the unit configuration over the Web interface.
All commands entered in CLI are followed by values, parameters or both. Parameters may be mandatory values, optional values, choices, or a combination.
- <parameter>
- The < > angle brackets indicate that a mandatory parameter is to be entered in place of the brackets and text inside them.
- [parameter]
- The [ ] square brackets indicate that an optional parameter may be entered in place of the brackets and text inside them.
- choice1 | choice2
- The | indicates that only one of the parameters must be entered.
- {parameter}
-
The { } curly braces indicate that a parameter must be chosen from the list of choices.
Values may be in the form of six hexadecimal numbers separated by colons (MAC address), for example, 00:06:29:32:81:40, dotted-decimal notation (Area IDs), for example, 0.0.0.1, slot/port numbers, for example, 1/1, or logical slot/port (applicable in the case of a link-aggregation).
