zCLI Tips and Tricks
zStarting CLI Session
zVerifying Status
zSetup Commands
Initial provisioning normally uses the local Craft RS-232 CLI management port. (The
RS-232 port must be used to set up the Ethernet and TL1 ports for remote
management.)
For detailed information, refer to Chapter 6 in the Wide Bank 28 DS3 User Manual.
CLI Tips and Tricks
The following tips and tricks can be helpful when using the Command Line
Interface:
zIf you initiate a craft RS-232 session and find that a Telnet session is already
active, you can cancel (kill) the conflicting session by pressing CTRL+k.
zYou can back up (reverse) through the last three commands that were issued
by pressing CTRL+r, and move forward by pressing CTRL+f.
zWhen the screen scrolling stops with a more... message, pressing Enter
advances the scroll one line, and pressing the space bar advances the scroll one
page. For continuous scrolling (no stops), set the screen lines to zero by
entering the command screen 0.
zTo stop a long scroll from completing, press Esc.
