Using the Command-Line Interface

The command-line interface (CLI) is a text-based way to manage and monitor the system. You can access the
CLI by using a direct serial connection or by using a remote logical connection with Telnet or SSH.
The CLI groups commands into modes according to the command function. Each of the command modes
supports specific software commands. The commands in one mode are not available until you switch to
that particular mode, with the exception of the User EXEC mode commands. You can execute the User EXEC
mode commands in the Privileged EXEC mode.
To display the commands available in the current mode, enter a question mark (?) at the command prompt.
To display the available command keywords or parameters, enter a question mark (?) after each word you
type at the command prompt. If there are no additional command keywords or parameters, or if additional
parameters are optional, the following message appears in the output:
<cr>
For more information about the CLI, see the EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Guide.
The EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference lists each command available from the CLI by the command name
and provides a brief description of the command. Each command reference also contains the following
information:
• The command keywords and the required and optional parameters.
• The command mode you must be in to access the command.
• The default value, if any, of a configurable setting on the device.
