8.1 Basic CLI Operations
This section describes the command line interface (CLI) provided by the GSWB.
8.1.1 Operating environment
The operating environment needs to include a terminal that can be connected to the
GSWB as a remote console. For details, see the PRIMEQUEST 480/440 Installation
Manual. (C122-E001EN)
8.1.2 CLI access procedure
After the device is started, connect to the remote console (execute the [telnet] or [ssh]
command). A [login] prompt appears. Enter the correct account name and password
to log in.
8.1.3 CLI command modes
The commands are divided into operation commands, configuration definition
commands, and editing commands. Operation commands display system status
information and statistical information and clear statistical counters. The
configuration definition and editing commands modify interface parameters and
enable switching functions. In addition, the commands run in different modes. The
available commands depend on the command mode selected.
