CLI Commands B-15
ENABLE
enable access Enables the Access List feature. When enables, only Remote Hosts in the access list
are permitted access to the Router’s management services.
enable bridge network
<network_name>
Enables bridging over the specified network. You must have previously run
add bridge network to add bridging over this network. bridge networking is
enabled by default, so you will only need to use this command if you have
previously disabled this bridge. Note that bridging will not occur for a protocol, if
routing is enabled for that protocol.
enable bridge
spanning_tree
Enables the spanning tree algorithm for the bridge connection. The spanning tree
algorithm is required if there is more than one bridge between the same two LAN
segments. You can use list bridge forwarding to see which bridges are defined,
and show bridge network <network_name> settings to see which options are
enabled on a particular bridge network.
enable command
password <password>
Enables the console password feature. When enabled, the user must login with
the specified password before using the console port. This password is not the
same password specified for Remote Login access. Once enabled, the unit must be
sent back to the factory if the password is forgotten.
enable interface
<interface_name>
Enables the specified interface. Enabling an interface enables it to transmit and
receive data. You can use list interfaces to see which interfaces are defined, and
whether they are currently disabled.
enable ip forwarding Enables all IP networks to forward (route) packets. You should only need to use
this command if you previously used disable ip forwarding.
enable ip network
<network_name>
Enables the specified IP network, which you previously defined using add ip
network. You can use list ip networks to see the currently defined IP networks, as
well as their current status.
enable ip rip Enables the RIP protocol for all IP networks. RIP protocol is set to NONE by default.
You can check the RIP version using show ip network settings, and modify it using
set ip network. RIP is enabled by default.
enable ip routing Enables all routing protocols for all IP networks. Currently, the only IP routing
protocol this command enables is RIP, so it is functionally the same as enable ip rip.
enable ipx network
<network_name>
Enables the specified IPX network, which you previously defined using the add ipx
network command. You can list currently defined IPX networks using list ipx
networks.
enable lan access When the access list feature is enabled, this command enables access to all hosts
on the local LAN interface. When enabled, all frames received on the LAN
interface bypass the access list check.
