Chapter 4
Cajun Campus CLI
This chapter describes the Avaya P330 CLI architecture and conventions, and
provides instructions for accessing the Avaya P330 for configuration purposes.
The configuration procedure involves establishing a Telnet session or a serial
connection and then using the Avaya P330's internal CLI. The CLI is command-line
driven and does not have any menus. To activate a configuration option, you must
type the desired command at the prompt and press Enter. You can also configure
your Avaya P330 using the P330 Manager with its graphical user interface. For
details, see the Avaya P330 Device Manager Appendix and the CajunView P330
Device Manager User's Guide on the Documentation and Utilities CD.

CLI Architecture

The P330 stack supports both Layer 2 switching and Layer 3 switching.
The P333R-LB CLI includes two CLI entities to support this functionality.
• The Switch CLI entity is used to manage Layer 2 switching of the entire stack.
The Switch CLI entity is identical to the CLI of a P330 Layer 2 modules.
CLI commands for managing Layer 2 switching are described in Chapter 6.
• The Router CLI entity is used to manage Layer 3 switching of a single module.
The Router CLI entity exists only in P330R Layer 3 modules and supports
different sets of commands depending on the device mode of the P333R-LB
module.
If the P333R-LB module is the Master of the stack, then the Switch CLI entity and the
Router CLI entity co-exist on the same module.
To switch between the entities, use the session command.
Configuration of the password commands and community commands in one
entity is automatically attributed to the other entity in the stack.
Initial access to the stack can be established via a serial connection or a Telnet
connection to any one of the entities.
