Starting the CLI

To start the CLI:

1.

Establish a connection with the Services Router:

To access the router remotely from the network, enter the command you
typically use to establish a remote connection (such as

Telnet

or

ssh

) using

the router hostname.

To access the router through a management device attached to the console
port, start the terminal application.

To access the router through the J-Web interface, select Diagnose>CLI
Terminal
in the J-Web interface. For more information, see the J-Web
Interface User Guide
.

2.

Log in using your username and password.

After you log in, you enter a UNIX shell.

3.

Start the CLI.

% cli
user@host>

The presence of the angle bracket (>) prompt indicates the CLI has started. By
default, the prompt is preceded by a string that contains your username and the
hostname of the router.

To exit the CLI and return to the UNIX shell, enter the

quit

command.

Router and the CLI starts, you are at the top level of operational mode.
