7 Command Line Interface
This section describes how to use the Command Line Interface (CLI).
7.1 Using the Command Line Interface
7.1.1 Accessing the CLI
The ECN330-switch provides a command-line interface (CLI) for managing its
switching features. This management interface can be accessed using a direct
connection to the ECN330’s console port, or through a Telnet connection. The
CLI enables switch configuration through entering keywords and parameters at
a command prompt, which is similar to entering commands on a UNIX system.
7.1.2 Console Connection
To access the ECN330-switch through the console port, perform these steps:
1. At the console prompt, type the user name and password. (The default user
name is admin with corresponding password of admin.) When an
administrator user name and password is entered, the CLI displays the
Console# prompt and enters privileged access mode (that is, Privileged
Exec). But when a guest user name and password is entered, the CLI
displays the Console> prompt and enters normal access mode (that is,
Normal Exec).
2. Enter the necessary commands to complete the desired tasks.
3. When finished, exit the session with the quit or exit command.
