8.2 Command Line Interface (CLI)

The SuperSonix-NG also has a CLI, or Command Line Interface. This interface has no graphical
content and is all command line (text) based and is for advanced users who have knowledge of
command line functions. This type of connection requires a Telnet or SSH client. There are
several Telnet and SSH clients available from different software companies. Microsoft Windows
also has a built-in Telnet client that can be used.

Windows XP has a built-in Telnet client.

Windows Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, and 10 have a built-in Telnet client but is not
installed by default. Installing the Telnet client may require the assistance of a
Network or Systems Administrator. Other third-party Telnet programs are
available.

All versions of Windows do not have a built-in SSH client.

For assistance on the installation of any SSH or Telnet software (including
Microsoft's Telnet client) please check with your IT administrator.
