Chapter 21: Overview of the Command Line

Interface

This chapter describes how to use the Command Line Interface (CLI).

Note:

You can only access the console interface through the Master unit in the stack.

Using the Command Line Interface

Accessing the CLI

When accessing the management interface for the switch over a direct connection

to the server’s console port, or via a Telnet connection, the switch can be managed

by entering command keywords and parameters at the prompt. Using the switch's

command-line interface (CLI) is very similar to entering commands on a UNIX

system.

Console Connection

To access the switch through the console port, perform these steps:

1. At the console prompt, enter the user name and password. (The default user

names are “admin” and “guest” with corresponding passwords of “admin” and

“guest.”) When the administrator user name and password is entered, the CLI

displays the “Console#” prompt and enters privileged access mode

(i.e., Privileged Exec). But when the guest user name and password is entered,

the CLI displays the “Console>” prompt and enters normal access mode

(i.e., Normal Exec).

2. Enter the necessary commands to complete your desired tasks.

3. When finished, exit the session with the “quit” or “exit” command.

After connecting to the system through the console port, the login screen displays:

Telnet Connection

Telnet operates over the IP transport protocol. In this environment, your

management station and any network device you want to manage over the network

must have a valid IP address. Valid IP addresses consist of four numbers, 0 to 255,

separated by periods. Each address consists of a network portion and host portion.

User Access Verification

Username: admin

Password:

CLI session with the GTL-2690 is opened.

To end the CLI session, enter [Exit].
