The CLI provides a director, fabric switch, and SAN router
management alternative to traditional SAN management GUIs. The
interface allows users to access application functions by entering
commands through a PC-attached Telnet session. Any platform that
supports Telnet client software can be used.
The primary purpose of the CLI is to automate management of
several directors or switches using scripts. Although the CLI is
designed for use in a host-based scripting environment, basic
commands can be entered directly at a disk operating system (DOS)
window command prompt. The CLI is not an interactive interface; no
checking is done for pre-existing conditions, and a user prompt does
not display to guide users through tasks.
