The iBoot-G2+ Command Line Interface (CLI) provides a text based method for communicating with the iBoot.
The syntax of the CLI uses a basic Set (change a variable) and Get (retrieve a variable). The CLI is accessed
either through the Telnet protocol, which requires a Telnet client program, or via USB which requires a serial
communications program like Hyperterminal. Dataprobe also provides a simple terminal program (EZ Term) at
http://dataprobe.com/support/iboot.html.
