Command-Line Interface Troubleshooting Commands

The command-line interface (CLI) allows you to configure and monitor Cisco NX-OS using a local console
or remotely using a Telnet or Secure Shell (SSH) session. The CLI provides a command structure similar to
Cisco IOS software, with context-sensitive help, show commands, multiuser support, and roles-based access
control.
