Using the Command-Line Interface

This section assumes you have already performed the initial setup of the HP EFS WAN
Accelerator Manager using the configuration wizard.

To connect the CLI

1. You can connect to the CLI using one of the following options:

‹

An ASCII terminal or emulator that can connect to the serial console. It must
have the following settings: 9600 baud, 8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow
control.

‹

A computer with a Secure Shell (ssh) client that is connected to the HP EFS
WAN Accelerator Manager Primary port.

2. At the system prompt, enter the following command:

ssh admin@host.domain

or

ssh admin@ipaddress

3. You are prompted for the administrator password. This is the password you set

during the initial configuration process. (The default password is password.)

You can also log in as a monitor user (monitor). Monitor users cannot make
configuration changes to the system. Monitor users can view connected appliances,
and performance and system reports.

Overview of the
CLI

The CLI is divided into the following modes:

‹

User. When you start a CLI session, you begin in the default, user mode. From
the user mode you can run common network tests such as ping. You do not enter
a command to enter this mode. To exit this mode, enter exit at the command line.

‹

Privileged. To have access to all commands, you must enter privileged mode.
From privileged mode, you can enter any privileged command or enter
configuration mode. You must be an administrator user to enter privileged mode.

NOTE: You cannot enter privileged mode if you are a monitor user.

‹

Configuration. Using configuration mode, you can make changes to the running
configuration. If you save the configuration, these commands are stored when the
system reboots. To enter configuration mode you must first be in privileged
mode. To exit this mode, enter exit at the command line.
