Open a command prompt and enter the following command:
telnet 192.168.2.1
NOTE:
The above IP address is hardcoded into the Interface Manager card and is completely
separate from the network IP address.
At the login prompt, use the following default information:
•
Username: cliadmin
•
Password: clipwd
NOTE:
After initially logging in, you should change your password using the
command. This command starts an interactive procedure for changing
the password.
Any time you can connect via Telnet, you can connect via SSH. SSH uses the same CLI as the
Telnet and serial interfaces, but over a more secure channel. Different SSH client applications
are available for various operating systems. When connected via SSH, use it in the exact way
you would use Telnet.
Command syntax structure
The command prompt has the following format:
/command_level >
The variable command_level indicates the current command level. For example, when you first
log in to the CLI with your CLI username and password, you see the following root-level prompt:
/ >
The root command level offers all of the basic and operational commands. To change command
levels, enter any command that is available from the current command level. For example, from
the root command level, if you enter the set command to change to the set command level, the
following prompt shows:
/set >
All of the set commands are directly available at this level.
Using command sequences
You can change to any command level by specifying a sequence of command levels. A command
sequence contains each command level name separated by a space. For example, to get to the
mode command level of the set command level, you could either enter set mode from the root
command level or mode from the set command level:
