COMMAND LINE INTERFACE

The Command Line Interface (CLI) is a useful tool for checking link status and debugging link
connections. To enable the use of CLI the OSD2251P must be connected to a PC with a serial port and
an appropriate cable as specified in section 2.2.6. Using a terminal emulation program such as
Hyperterminal, a number of command lines specific to the OSD2251P can be implemented to check
link/node status, ring/bus topology and enable/diable float backup.
