Features of the Command Line Interface

The command line interface (CLI) of the firewall enables you to configure, manage, and maintain the
firewall.
The CLI provides the following functions:
Allows you to perform local configuration through the console port.
Allows you to perform local or remote configuration and directly log into and manage other devices
by using the telnet command.
Provides online help information that is available by entering "?".
Provides network diagnostic tools, such as Tracert and Ping, for quick diagnosis of network
connectivity.
Provides all kinds of detailed debugging information to help diagnose network faults.
Supports the auto-complete function. If you enter a conflict-free part of a command, the command
will be interpreted. For example, you just need to enter dis for display.
Supports the suggest function. For example, if you type dis and press Tab, all commands starting
with dis will be displayed.
Command Line Interface
The command line interface of the firewall provides plenty of configuration commands. All the
commands are grouped in system view. Each group corresponds to a view. You can switch between
different configuration views by using corresponding commands. In general, only certain commands
can be executed in a particular view. However, some commonly used commands, such as ping and
display current-configuration, can be executed in any view.
