Chapter 4: Using CPS Commands 47
In this case, both SERVER and REBOOT are positional commands.
In most cases, one or more spaces separate positional commands, positional
parameters and keyword parameters.
For most positional commands, positional parameters or keyword parameters,
you only need to enter the first three characters. The exceptions are:
When you specify a terminal type with the Type parameter in the Server
CLI command, you must enter all characters.
When you specify an authentication method with the Auth parameter in
the Server SSH command, you must enter all characters.
When you specify control signal monitoring with the Power parameter in
the Port Set command, you must enter all characters.
With the exception of usernames and passwords, commands are not case
sensitive; they can be entered in uppercase, lowercase or a combination. For
example, all of the following commands are correct.
> PORT 2 SET BAUD=57600 FLOW=XON
> POR 2 SET BAU=57600 FLOW=XON
> por 2 Set Baud=57600 flow=xon
> port 2 set baud=57600 flow=xon
NOTE: Usernames and passwords are case sensitive. These values are stored exactly as
you enter them. For example, the username “Ann” must be entered with an uppercase “A”
and all other letters lowercase. The username “ANN” will not be accepted by the CPS as the
username “Ann.” Usernames and passwords must contain 3-16 alphanumeric characters.
Any syntax errors are displayed, and where applicable, the error is underlined.
In the following example, the keyword parameter “baud” is misspelled. Even if
more than three characters are entered, they must all be correct.
> port 2 Set Baux=57600 flow=xon
----
ERR 26 - SET keyword parameter invalid
In the following example, the keyword value “576” is not valid. Numeric
keyword values must be fully specified and may not be shortened to
three characters.
> POR 2 SET BAUD=576 FLOW=XON
---
ERR 27 - SET keyword value invalid
