NetEngine IAD User Guide
Intro-
duction
The command line interface is often more convenient to use than the
menu interface. Many of the tasks you normally perform using the menu
interface are also available in the command line interface.
To enter command line interface (CLI) mode, type C on the Main menu.
The IAD enters command mode, and allows you to enter IAD commands
(described below) until you type the exit or quit command to return to
the menu interface.
CLI Help
Display a list of all commands in the command line interface by typing
help at the prompt. To display the parameters for a specific command,
type command, followed by a question mark (?). For example, set wan
ip address?.
Command Line Syntax
The command line interface supports the following syntax:
command <required parameters> (optional parameters)
For example:
set wan ip address 192.3.4.5 255.255.255.0 2 0 0 1
The required parameters are IP address <192.3.4.5> and netmask
<255.255.255.0>. The optional parameters are the slot (2), interface (0),
port (0) and connection (1).
The command and its parameters are NOT case sensitive.
Command Example
For each command in the interface, the following information is provided:
set wan stp
bridge
Description. This section describes the command in general. Immediately
following the description is the command itself, along with its required and
optional parameters.
set wan stp bridge <on | off> (slot) (interface) (port)
If a command has parameters, they are listed individually, and described.
Keywords are listed (separated by an OR bar (|) to indicate one keyword is
allowed), as well as upper and lower parameter value limits.
