AlliedWare Plus™ Command Line Interface
The following sections describe the features and characteristics of the
AlliedWare Plus™ interface.
Command Modes
The AlliedWare Plus interface has a very different structure from the
standard command interface. Instead of a flat command structure, it has
different levels called modes that are arranged in the hierarchy illustrated
in Figure 6.
Figure 6. Command Modes
All the modes support different commands and management functions.
The only exception is the Privileged Executive mode because it supports
all the same functions as the User Executive Mode, plus quite a few
others.
Before you perform a management function, you have to move to the
mode that has the appropriate commands. For instance, to configure the
parameter settings of the ports on the switch, such as the speeds and
duplex modes, you have to go to the Interface mode because that’s the
mode that has the commands to configure the port parameters.
