Overview
This section details the usage of the Command Line Interface (CLI) feature for the Cisco SFS 7024. The
CLI allows the user to perform remote configuration and management tasks, which in many respects
mirrors the functionality of the Chassis Viewer GUI.
The CLI is accessed via a terminal attached to the SFS 7024 spine module(s) RS232 port(s) or via the
OOB management port using Telnet and secure shell (SSH). For a standalone SFS 7024, the user would
Telnet to the unit's IP address(es). Once connected, the CLI works as any telnet session does.
To access the CLI, a login and password is required. There are two user modes, operator and
administrator with the following access privileges:
Operator:
Read only access.
Administrator:
Read and write Access.
Reboot access.
Can change operator and administrator passwords.
Can disable user login and passwords. This would allow all users administrator-level access
without the need for a user name or password.
Can view all current user sessions
Can access all of the commands executed from any open operator session.
Can log out any open user sessions
Can send messages to the open user sessions
The CLI allows multiple users to be logged in simultaneously. However, some commands will be locked
to a user(s) if another user is executing the same command.
