Chapter 1 CLI Configuration
1.1 Introduction to the CLI
S3600 series Ethernet switches provide a command line interface (CLI) and
commands for you to configure and manage your switches. The CLI is featured by the
following:
z Commands are grouped by level. This prevents unauthorized users from
configuring switches with relevant commands.
z You can gain online help at any time by entering a question mark "?".
z Common diagnostic utilities (such as Tracert and Ping) are available.
z A variety of debugging information is available.
z A function similar to Doskey is provided for you to execute a history command.
z You can execute a command by entering part of the command in the CLI as long
as the keywords you enter do not conflict those of other commands.
1.2 Command Level/Command View
To prevent unauthorized accesses, commands are grouped by level.
Commands fall into four levels: visit, monitor, system, and manage.
z Visit level: Commands at this level are mainly used to diagnose network and
switch the language mode on the user interface, and they cannot be saved in
configuration files. Such commands include ping, tracert, and language-mode.
z Monitor level: Commands at this level are mainly used to maintain the system and
diagnose service faults, and they cannot be saved in configuration files. Such
commands include display and debugging.
z System level: Commands at this level are mainly used to configure services.
Commands concerning routing and network layers are at this level. These
commands can be used to provide network services directly.
z Manage level: Commands at this level are associated with the basic operation
modules and support modules of the system. These commands provide supports
for services. Commands concerning file system, FTP/TFTP/XModem
downloading, user management, and level setting are at this level.
Users logging in to a switch also fall into four levels, which respectively correspond to
the command levels. Users at a specific level can only use the commands at the same
level or lower levels.
