Getting Familiar with CLI

This section describes the basic structure of the device's CLI, which you may need to know
before configuring the device through CLI.
7.1.1

Understanding Configuration Modes

Before you begin your CLI session, you should familiarize yourself with the CLI command
modes. Each command mode provides different levels of access to commands, as
described below:

Basic command mode: This is the initial mode that is accessed upon a successful
CLI login authentication. Any user level can access this mode and thus, the
commands supported by this command tier are limited, as is interaction with the
device itself. This mode allows you to view various information (using the show
commands) and activate various debugging capabilities.
Welcome to AudioCodes CLI
Username: Admin
Password:
>
The Basic mode prompt is ">".

Enable command mode: This mode is the high-level tier in the command hierarchy,
one step up from the Basic Mode. A password ("Admin", by default) is required to
access this mode after you have accessed the Basic mode. This mode allows you to
configure all the device's settings. The Enable mode is accessed by typing the
following commands:
> enable
Password: <password>
#
The Enable mode prompt is "#".
Notes:
•
The enable command is required only for users with Administrator or Monitor
access levels; Security Administrator and Master access levels automatically enter
Enable mode upon initial login. For configuring user access levels, see
Configuring Web User Accounts on page 56.
•
The default password for accessing the Enable mode is "Admin" (case-sensitive).
To change this password, use the CLIPrivPass ini file parameter.
