Command Line Interface

A command line interface (CLI) is available for entering all the commands you can use with the
SLC 8000 advanced console manager. In this user guide, after each section of instructions for
using the web interface, you will find the equivalent CLI commands. You can access the command
line interface using Telnet, SSH, or a serial terminal connection.
Note: By default, Telnet is disabled and SSH is enabled. To enable Telnet, use the
Services > SSH/Telnet/Logging
connection. (See
The sysadmin user and users with who have full administrative rights have access to the complete
command set, while all other users have access to a reduced command set based on their
permissions.
