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