Using the command line
The Digi AnywhereUSB Plus device provides a command-line interface that you can use to configure
the device, display status and statistics, update firmware, and manage device files.
See Command line interface for detailed instructions on using the command line interface and see
Command line reference for information on available commands.
Access the command line interface
You can access the AnywhereUSB Plus command line interface using an SSH connection or a serial
