Command Line Interface
CAUTION
!
If you choose to configure the switch’s network IP address to be on 
a public network, this could allow someone to attempt to manage 
the switch via the CLI. Therefore, if you configure the switch with a 
public IP address, EMC recommends that the CLI be disabled, 
using Connectrix Manager. If you intend to use the CLI (even 
though EMC does recommend and/or support its use), verify that it 
is enabled in Connectrix Manager; however, be sure to change the 
default passwords of the CLI. (Refer to login on page D-11.)
This same caution applies to the Embedded Web Server interface. 
(Refer to Appendix C.)
Entering CLI 
Commands
CLI commands can be entered directly at the command line of a 
terminal or coded in a script.
CLI commands are not case sensitive.
Document
Conventions
Throughout this appendix, periods are used to separate the 
components of a command name. However, the periods cannot be 
included when the command is actually entered at the terminal or 
coded in a script. (How to enter the commands is explained in 
Navigating the CLI Command Tree on page D-9.)
Even though the commands cannot be entered with the periods, the 
command line prompts do include the periods; for example:
