CLI Configuration
8. CLI Configuration
CLI interface (Command Line Interface) is an alternative to web access. You can work with the CLI
interface in text mode using an appropriate client, either ssh (putty) or telnet.
CLI "login" and "password" are the same as those for web access via browser. Access using ssh keys
is also possible. Keys are unique for each individual RipEX Serial number. Private key is downloaded
in RipEX, for public key kindly contact RACOM and provide RipEX S/N.
Connecting with a putty client. Type the following command into the window Host Name (or IP address):
admin@192.168.169.169
Press Open. Then enter the password admin.

Welcome to RipEX Command Line Interface (CLI) on station: RipEX 50
For help try: cli_help
CLI(admin):~$
The cli_help command shows a list of all available functions. The commands can be completed
using the Tab key. If you select the command with the left mouse button, you can copy it to the clipboard
and then use the right mouse button to insert it into the location of the cursor. You can use the -t
parameter to send commands to remote RipEX's. Every command gives a comprehensive help when
invoked with -h or –help parameter.
An example of a parameter request for the COM1 port of the RipEX with IP 192.168.1.1:
CLI(admin):~$ cli_cnf_show_com 1 -t 192.168.1.1
COM UDP port setting: Default (d)
COM UDP port (manual): 50001
COM link type: RS232 (RS232)
COM bitrate: 19200 (19200)
COM data bits: 8 (8)
COM parity: None (n)
COM stop bits: 1 (1)
COM idle size: 5 chars
COM MTU: 1600 bytes
COM handshake: None (n)
COM break length: 1000 chars
COM protocol: None (n)
The CLI is a powerful tool for advanced management of RipEX, especially suited for automated tasks.
It is best learned through its own help system, hence it is not described in further detail here.
