About the Web Interface
This guide details the commands available on the Web and the Command Line Interfaces. The
tables contained in this document reference the CLI commands and the equivalent Web Interface
menu items that allow the same configuration to be made via the web interface.
About the Command Line Interface
To use and navigate the command line interface of your unit, please refer to the following points
for assistance:
■When initially accessing the command line interface, press Enter when prompted. The User View
menu for the unit displays. This is indicated by the chevron brackets around the name of the unit
at the prompt, for example, <4500>.
■When in the System View menu, square brackets appear around the name of the unit at the
prompt, for example, [4500].
■You must be in the System View menu to access the configurable CLI commands.
■Some commands can be entered directly at any prompt from anywhere in the interface.
■If you enter part of a command followed by a ?(with no space between), the CLI will show you
all the commands that begin in that way.
■To display command parameters:
At the prompt, enter the name of the command followed by a space and ?. For example:
<4500>boot ?
The following parameters are displayed:
boot-loader
bootrom
<4500>
To specify boot loader, enter the command as follows:
<4500>boot boot-loader ?
You only need to enter ?if parameters exist for the command.
■To display parent menus:
At the prompt, enter quit.
■To display the User View menu:
Press <CTRL-Z>.
■To obtain help:
At the prompt, enter ?.
■The term ‘view’ may be used interchangeably with the term ‘menu’.

■The undo command is placed before the command you wish to undo, for example, undo set
authentication password.
■<CTRL A> places the cursor back to the start of the command line.
■Enter the first few characters of a command and press TAB to enter the full command without
having to input the entire command (where there is only one command that starts with the
entered characters).
■Use the Up Arrow key at the prompt to repeat the previous command string.
■Use the Delete key to delete the character after the cursor; the Backspace key deletes the charac-
ter before the cursor.
■When entering physical port numbers, Enter the port number as x/0/z, where x is the unit
number and z is the physical port number.
Further Information
For further information about how to use the command line interface, refer to the Command
Reference Guide and the Configuration Guide, which are both available as PDF documents on the
CD that accompanied the unit.
Menus
