Section 1. Using the CLI
This chapter describes how to start using the CLI and describes implemented command editing features to assist
in using the CLI.
1.1 CLI Command Modes
1.1.1 Introduction
To assist in configuring the device, the Command Line Interface (CLI) is divided into different command modes.
Each command mode has its own set of specific commands. Entering a question mark "?" at the system prompt
(console prompt) displays a list of commands available for that particular command mode.
From each mode, a specific command is used to navigate from one command mode to another. The standard
order to access the modes is as follows: User EXEC mode, Privileged EXEC mode, Global Configuration mode,
and Interface Configuration mode. The following figure illustrates the command mode access path.
When starting a session, the initial mode is the User EXEC mode. Only a limited subset of commands is available
in User EXEC mode. This level is reserved for tasks that do not change the configuration. To enter the next level,
the Privileged EXEC mode, a password is required.
The Privileged EXEC mode gives access to commands that are restricted on User EXEC mode and provides
access to the device Configuration mode.
TL-SG3109/TL-SL3428/TL-SL3452 Gigabit Managed Switch Family CLI Reference Guide
Page 10

The Global Configuration mode manages the device configuration on a global level.
The Interface Configuration mode configures specific interfaces in the device.
1.1.2 User EXEC Mode
After logging into the device, the user is automatically in User EXEC command mode unless the user is defined as
a privileged user. In general, the User EXEC commands allow the user to perform basic tests, and list system
information.
The user-level prompt consists of the device host name followed by the angle bracket (>).
The default host name is Console unless it has been changed using the hostname command in the Global Con-
figuration mode.
1.1.3 Privileged EXEC Mode
Privileged access is password protected to prevent unauthorized use because many of the privileged commands
set operating system parameters. The password is not displayed on the screen and is case sensitive.
Privileged users enter directly into the Privileged EXEC mode. To enter the Privileged EXEC mode from the User
EXEC mode, perform the following steps:
1. At the prompt enter the enable command and press <Enter>. A password prompt is displayed.
2. Enter the password and press <Enter>. The password is displayed as *. The Privileged EXEC mode prompt
is displayed. The Privileged EXEC mode prompt consists of the device host name followed by #.
To return from the Privileged EXEC mode to the User EXEC mode, use the disable command. The following
example illustrates how to access the Privileged EXEC mode and return to the User EXEC mode:
The exit command is used to return from any mode to the previous mode except when returning to the User
EXEC mode from the Privileged EXEC mode. For example, the exit command is used to return from the Interface
Configuration mode to the Global Configuration mode.

1.1.4 Global Configuration Mode
Global Configuration mode commands apply to features that affect the system as a whole, rather than just a spe-
cific interface. The configure Privileged EXEC mode command is used to enter the Global Configuration mode.
To enter the Global Configuration mode perform the following steps:
1. At the Privileged EXEC mode prompt enter the configure command and press <Enter>. The Global Configu-
ration mode prompt is displayed. The Global Configuration mode prompt consists of the device host name
followed by (config) and #.
To return from the Global Configuration mode to the Privileged EXEC mode, the user can use one of the following
commands:
•exit
•end
•<Ctrl+Z>
The following example illustrates how to access the Global Configuration mode and return to the Privileged EXEC
mode:
1.1.5 Interface Configuration and Specific Configuration Modes
Interface Configuration mode commands modify specific interface operations. The following are the Interface Con-
figuration modes:
•Line Interface — Contains commands to configure the management connections. These include commands
such as line timeout settings, etc. The line Global Configuration mode command is used to enter the Line
Configuration command mode.
•VLAN Database — Contains commands to create a VLAN as a whole. The vlan database Global Configura-
tion mode command is used to enter the VLAN Database Interface Configuration mode.
•Management Access List — Contains commands to define management access-lists. The management
access-list Global Configuration mode command is used to enter the Management Access List Configuration
mode.
•Ethernet — Contains commands to manage port configuration. The interface ethernet Global Configuration
mode command is used to enter the Interface Configuration mode to configure an Ethernet type interface.
•Port Channel — Contains commands to configure port-channels, for example, assigning ports to a port-
channel. Most of these commands are the same as the commands in the Ethernet interface mode, and are
used to manage the member ports as a single entity. The interface port-channel Global Configuration mode
command is used to enter the Port Channel Interface Configuration mode.
•SSH Public Key-chain — Contains commands to manually specify other device SSH public keys. The
crypto key pubkey-chain ssh Global Configuration mode command is used to enter the SSH Public Key-
chain Configuration mode.
•QoS — Contains commands related to service definitions. The qos Global Configuration mode command is
used to enter the QoS services configuration mode.

•MAC Access-List —Configures conditions required to allow traffic based on MAC addresses. The mac
access-list Global Configuration mode command is used to enter the MAC access-list configuration mode..
1.2 Starting the CLI
The device can be managed over a direct connection to the device console port or via a Telnet connection. The
device is managed by entering command keywords and parameters at the prompt. Using the device command-
line interface (CLI) is very similar to entering commands on a UNIX system.
If access is via a Telnet connection, ensure that the device has a defined IP address, corresponding management
access is granted, and the workstation used to access the device is connected to the device prior to using CLI
commands.
Note
The following steps are for use on the console line only.
To start using the CLI, perform the following steps:
1. Connect the DB9 null-modem or cross over cable to the RS-232 serial port of the device to the RS-232 serial
port of the terminal or computer running the terminal emulation application.
Note
The default data rate is 38400.
a) Set the data format to 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity.
b) Set Flow Control to none.
c) Under Properties, select VT100 for Emulation mode.
d) Select Terminal keys for Function, Arrow, and Ctrl keys. Ensure that the setting is for Terminal keys
(not Windows keys).
Note
When using HyperTerminal with Microsoft® Windows 2000,ensure that Windows® 2000 Service Pack 2
or later is installed.With Windows 2000 Service Pack 2, the arrow keys function properly in
HyperTerminal’s VT100 emulation. Go to www.microsoft.com for information on Windows 2000 service
packs.
2. Enter the following commands to begin the configuration procedure:
Console> enable
Console# configure
Console(config)#
3. Configure the device and enter the necessary commands to complete the required tasks.
4. When finished, exit the session with the exit command.
When a different user is required to log onto the system, use the login Privileged EXEC mode command. This
effectively logs off the current user and logs on the new user.

1.3 Editing Features
1.3.1 Entering Commands
A CLI command is a series of keywords and arguments. Keywords identify a command, and arguments specify
configuration parameters. For example, in the command show interfaces status ethernet e8, show, interfaces
and status are keywords, ethernet is an argument that specifies the interface type, and 8specifies the port.
To enter commands that require parameters, enter the required parameters after the command keyword. For
example, to set a password for the administrator, enter:
Console(config)# username admin password smith
When working with the CLI, the command options are not displayed. The command is not selected from a menu,
but is manually entered. To see what commands are available in each mode or within an interface configuration,
the CLI does provide a method of displaying the available commands, the command syntax requirements and in
some instances parameters required to complete the command. The standard command to request help is ?.
There are two instances where help information can be displayed:
•Keyword lookup — The character ?is entered in place of a command. A list of all valid commands and cor-
responding help messages are is displayed.
•Partial keyword lookup — If a command is incomplete and or the character ? is entered in place of a
parameter. The matched keyword or parameters for this command are displayed.
To assist in using the CLI, there is an assortment of editing features. The following features are described:
•Terminal Command Buffer
•Command Completion
•Keyboard Shortcuts
1.3.1.1 Terminal Command Buffer
Every time a command is entered in the CLI, it is recorded on an internally managed Command History buffer.
Commands stored in the buffer are maintained on a First In First Out (FIFO) basis. These commands can be
recalled, reviewed, modified, and reissued. This buffer is not preserved across device resets.
By default, the history buffer system is enabled, but it can be disabled at any time. For information about the com-
mand syntax to enable or disable the history buffer, see history.
There is a standard default number of commands that are stored in the buffer. The standard number of 10 com-
mands can be increased to 216. By configuring 0, the effect is the same as disabling the history buffer system. For
information about the command syntax for configuring the command history buffer, see history size.
To display the history buffer, see show history.
Keyword Description
Up-arrow key
Ctrl+P
Recalls commands in the history buffer, beginning with the most recent com-
mand. Repeats the key sequence to recall successively older commands.
Down-arrow key Returns to more recent commands in the history buffer after recalling com-
mands with the up-arrow key. Repeating the key sequence will recall succes-
sively more recent commands.

1.3.1.2 Negating the Effect of Commands
For many configuration commands, the prefix keyword no can be entered to cancel the effect of a command or
reset the configuration to the default value. This guide describes the negation effect for all applicable commands.
1.3.1.3 Command Completion
If the command entered is incomplete, invalid or has missing or invalid parameters, then the appropriate error
message is displayed. This assists in entering the correct command. By pressing the <Tab> button, an incomplete
command is entered. If the characters already entered are not enough for the system to identify a single matching
command, press ?to display the available commands matching the characters already entered.
1.3.1.4 Keyboard Shortcuts
The CLI has a range of keyboard shortcuts to assist in editing the CLI commands. The following table describes
the CLI shortcuts.
1.3.1.5 CLI Command Conventions
When entering commands there are certain command entry standards that apply to all commands. The following
table describes the command conventions.
Keyboard Key Description
Up-arrow key Recalls commands from the history buffer, beginning with the most recent command.
Repeat the key sequence to recall successively older commands.
Down-arrow key Returns the most recent commands from the history buffer after recalling commands with
the up arrow key. Repeating the key sequence will recall successively more recent com-
mands.
Ctrl+A Moves the cursor to the beginning of the command line.
Ctrl+E Moves the cursor to the end of the command line.
Ctrl+Z / End Returns back to the Privileged EXEC mode from any configuration mode.
Backspace key Deletes one character left to the cursor position.
Convention Description
[ ] In a command line, square brackets indicates an optional entry.
{ } In a command line, curly brackets indicate a selection of compulsory parameters sepa-
rated by the | character. One option must be selected. For example: flowcontrol
{auto|on|off} means that for the flowcontrol command either auto, on or off must be
selected.
Italic font Indicates a parameter.
<Enter> Any individual key on the keyboard. For example click <Enter>.
Ctrl+F4 Any combination keys pressed simultaneously on the keyboard.

Screen Display
Indicates system messages and prompts appearing on the console.
all When a parameter is required to define a range of ports or parameters and all is an
option, the default for the command is all when no parameters are defined. For exam-
ple, the command interface range port-channel has the option of either entering a
range of channels, or selecting all. When the command is entered without a parameter,
it automatically defaults to all.

Section 2. AAA Commands
aaa authentication login
The aaa authentication login Global Configuration mode command defines login authentication. To return to the
default configuration, use the no form of this command.
Syntax
aaa authentication login {default | list-name} method1 [method2...]
no aaa authentication login {default | list-name}
Parameters
•default — Uses the listed authentication methods that follow this argument as the default list of methods
when a user logs in.
•list-name — Character string used to name the list of authentication methods activated when a user logs in.
(Range: 1-12 characters).
•method1 [method2...] — Specify at least one from the following table:
Default Configuration
The local user database is checked. This has the same effect as the command aaa authentication login list-
name local.
Note
On the console, login succeeds without any authentication check if the authentication method is not
defined.
Command Mode
Global Configuration mode
Keyword Description
enable Uses the enable password for authentication.
line Uses the line password for authentication.
local Uses the local username database for authentication.
none Uses no authentication.
radius Uses the list of all RADIUS servers for authentication.
TL-SG3109/TL-SL3428/TL-SL3452 Gigabit Managed Switch Family CLI Reference Guide
Page 17

User Guidelines
The default and optional list names created with the aaa authentication login command are used with the login
authentication command.
Create a list by entering the aaa authentication login list-name method command for a particular protocol, where
list-name is any character string used to name this list. The method argument identifies the list of methods that the
authentication algorithm tries, in the given sequence.
The additional methods of authentication are used only if the previous method returns an error, not if it fails. To
ensure that the authentication succeeds even if all methods return an error, specify none as the final method in
the command line.
Example
The following example configures the authentication login.
Console(config)# aaa authentication login default radius local enable none

aaa authentication enable
The aaa authentication enable Global Configuration mode command defines authentication method lists for
accessing higher privilege levels. To return to the default configuration, use the no form of this command.
Syntax
aaa authentication enable {default |list-name} method1 [method2...]
no aaa authentication enable {default |list-name}
Parameters
•default — Uses the listed authentication methods that follow this argument as the default list of methods,
when using higher privilege levels.
•list-name — Character string used to name the list of authentication methods activated, when using access
higher privilege levels (Range: 1-12 characters).
•method1 [method2...] — Specify at least one from the following table:
Default Configuration
If the default list is not set, only the enable password is checked. This has the same effect as the command aaa
authentication enable default enable.
On the console, the enable password is used if it exists. If no password is set, the process still succeeds. This has
the same effect as using the command aaa authentication enable default enable none.
Command Mode
Global Configuration mode
User Guidelines
The default and optional list names created with the aaa authentication enable command are used with the
enable authentication command.
The additional methods of authentication are used only if the previous method returns an error, not if it fails. To
ensure that the authentication succeeds even if all methods return an error, specify none as the final method in
the command line.
All aaa authentication enable default requests sent by the device to a RADIUS server include the username
$enabx$., where x is the requested privilege level.
Keyword Description
enable Uses the enable password for authentication.
line Uses the line password for authentication.
none Uses no authentication.
radius Uses the list of all RADIUS servers for authentication. Uses username $enabx$.,
where x is the privilege level.
