INTRODUCTION TO CLI MODES
There are several modes in the CLI, and in each mode, you can perform specific
tasks. The CLI modes can be grouped under three main modes:
• CLI User Mode
• CLI Configuration Mode
• CLI Sub-Configuration Mode (SCM)
CLI USER MODE
In the CLI User Mode, you can enter commands to monitor and troubleshoot the
system, network connectivity, clearing of processes, and routers. At this level,
there are several broad groups of CLI commands. The two main administrative
modes are User Mode (UM) and Super User Mode (SUM). When you log in to the
OmniAccess 5740 USG and the start the CLI session, you are at the top level of
the CLI User Mode which is the User Mode (UM).
CLI CONFIGURATION MODE
In the configuration mode, you can configure the OmniAccess 5740 USG by
creating a hierarchy of configuration statements by using the CLI or by creating a
text (ASCII) file that contains the statement hierarchy. (The statement hierarchy is
identical in both the CLI and text configuration file).
You can configure different applications running on OmniAccess 5740 USG
including interfaces, general routing information, routing protocols, configuring
NAT, configuring firewall, VPN, QoS, and user access as well as several system
hardware parameters.
There are four different configuration modes: Configuration Mode (CM), Interface
Configuration Mode (ICM), Router Configuration Mode (RCM) and Sub-Interface
Configuration Mode (S-ICM).
CLI SUB-CONFIGURATION MODE (SCM)
From configuration modes, you can enter configuration sub-modes. The sub-
configuration modes are used for the configuration of specific features within the
scope of a given configuration mode.
