Chapter 3: CLI Commands

The Avaya G450 Media Gateway CLI is accessible directly via the serial console port, remotely

via Secure Shell (SSH), or via the modem PPP interface. The CLI is command-line driven and

does not have any menus. The CLI commands available, and the functions of those commands,

depend on the context you are in when you issue the command. For a complete discussion of

contexts, refer to

This chapter lists all the CLI commands for the Avaya G450 Media Gateway, arranged

alphabetically within topics.

To login to the CLI, you need a username and a password. Initially, there is only one user,

named root (with password root), on the system. It is recommended to change the root user

password to prevent unauthorized entry into the system. The root user has Administrative

privileges. You can add more users with the username command.

When you open the CLI interface, you are prompted for a username. Enter the username and

press Enter. Enter your password at the password prompt, and press Enter. Once you have

logged in, you can execute all the CLI commands that are permitted at your user level. For a full

discussion of user levels, refer to
