What is CLI?
The command line interface (CLI) enables you to interact with your device by typing text commands. At
the CLI, you can instruct your device to perform a given task by typing a text command and then pressing
Enter. Compared with the graphical use0r interface (GUI) where you can use a mouse to perform
configurations, the CLI allows you to input more information in one command line.
