Introduction

The modem configuration and status can also be view and modified through the console, which is accessible
through the RS-232 serial port or through a Telnet session over Ethernet.

CLI Terminology

In order to use the CLI commands, you need to understand the following CLI terms:
• Transport: A transport is a layer 2 session and everything below it. You can create a transport and attach it to
a bridge or router so that data can be bridged or routed via the attached transport. The CLI supports the
following transports:
• PPPoA: Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM
• PPPoE: Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet
• Frame Relay
• RFC1483
• IPoA: IP over ATM
• PPPoH: Point-to-Point over HDLC
• Ethernet
• Interface: bridges and routers both have interfaces. A single transport is attached to a bridge or router via an
interface.
• Object: an object is anything that you can create and manipulate as a single entity, for example, interfaces,
transports, static routes and NAT rules.
• List: Objects are numbered entries in a list. For example, if you have created more than one ethernet trans-
port, the following command:
ethernet list transports
produces a list of numbered transport objects:
• ID Name Port
• 1 eth2 ethernet
• 2 eth1 ethernet

Local (VT-100 emulation)

A connection is made with the DB9-RJ45 adapter and an RJ45-RJ45 straight-through cable. Set the data rate
to 9,600 baud, 8 data bits, one stop bits, and no parity. You may use a dumb terminal or a VT-100 emulation
such as HyperTerminal.

Remote (Telnet)

Establishing a Telnet session displays the same CLI configuration and status parameters on the display.
